This is a total health program, not just an exercise/diet plan. In addition to teaching you how to lose weight, the program helps you to restore the flexibility and posture you had as a child, and to be leaner, stronger, and faster than you have ever been.
The Happy Body Program has been tremendously successful, giving thousands of clients the tools to be strong, fit and energetic at any age. Yet it asks people to change, and true change takes grit. It takes a constant, ever-renewing commitment and motivation to make the difficult choice that leads to success. Most programs ignore the fact that we are emotional beings—the irrational side of the brain exerts a strong influence on what we do. While The Happy Body Program equips you with everything you need to know to succeed, it does not acknowledge the gaps where you know the right thing to do but still don’t do it. The right words at the right time, spoken for the right person, can do magic. This vulnerability is what I Got This addresses, providing a rich array of stories, lectures and poems to cultivate the readiness that sparks spontaneous transformation. This is the book that supports you when your willpower is low, inspiring you to never give up, to keep going for another day. And another. And another. Until you become a source of inspiration yourself.
"Hard choices, easy life. Easy choices, hard life."-Jerzy Gregorek
Becoming lean and fit is not a matter of training for a few weeks, like Rocky, to become a world champion. That only happens in Hollywood movies that portray professional athletes exercising for hours every day until they are exhausted. Real athletes never do that. They train only to the point that they can recover for the next day s training. Their progress comes in small increments, not heroic triumphs. Unfortunately, movies have persuaded people that they can become lean and fit virtually overnight. Even the weight loss and fitness industry bought into this distortion and began pushing people to become like Rocky. When that approach failed, because people were injuring themselves or burni...
READERS’ REVIEWS “This is a tremendously useful book. If you apply the book sincerely, your outlook and understanding of what is happening in your life (especially the portions where you are struggling) will change. A deep book [...] based on principles rather than simple prescriptions. The writing is simple and direct rather than flowery. It is clear that the author has implemented what he says in his own life. There are quick and effective action points at the end of most chapters. Some of the individual chapters are themselves worth the price of the book. If you are the sort of person who likes something both practical and thoughtful, do buy and read this book.” – Balaji Srinivasa...
The ultimate guide for parents who dream of having a little less chaos and a lot more time for the good things in life Written by mother of five, Nicole Avery, this book shows harried parents how, with just a bit of planning, family life can become easier to manage, less stressful, and decidedly more fun. "Dream on," you say? "I might as well try to herd cats as to get my kids to follow a lot of arbitrary rules!" And Nicole would agree, which is why Planning with Kids isn't like any other parenting guide out there. It was inspired by Nicole's blog of the same name, which, over the past three years, has garnered a huge audience of likeminded parents who have achieved nothing short of miraculo...
Easy choices, difficult life. Difficult choices, easy life. There are times when we feel overwhelmed and nothing seems to work. At such times, it is important to avoid feeling discouraged and to tap into whatever power and tools are available to help us achieve the desired breakthrough. This book harnesses the power of the discovery of a series of internal dialogues, to help readers achieve important goals in the realm of health and fitness. This is accomplished first by understanding the tension and interplay between the voices of the Fatalist and the Master within all of us. Readers are then invited to first extend these dialogues into their own lives and subsequently to articulate other key scenarios in their lives that are playing themselves out along similar lines. Ultimately, by importing the critical message into these various scenarios, you enable the voice of the Master within you to triumph. Jerzy Gregorek has been mentoring people for more than 30 years, to help them attain a happy and healthy lifestyle. He is the co-creator, together with his wife Aniela, of The Happy Body Program
These fifty humorous misrules of grammar will open the eyes of writers of all levels to fine style. How Not to Write is a wickedly witty book about grammar, usage, and style. William Safire, the author of the New York Times Magazine column "On Language," homes in on the "essential misrules of grammar," those mistakes that call attention to the major rules and regulations of writing. He tells you the correct way to write and then tells you when it is all right to break the rules. In this lighthearted guide, he chooses the most common and perplexing concerns of writers new and old. Each mini-chapter starts by stating a misrule like "Don't use Capital letters without good REASON." Safire then follows up with solid and entertaining advice on language, grammar, and life. He covers a vast territory from capitalization, split infinitives (it turns out you can split one if done meaningfully), run-on sentences, and semi-colons to contractions, the double negative, dangling participles, and even onomatopoeia. Originally published under the title Fumblerules.
Stoics saw happiness as flow in life, a combination of self-control and virtue. To be virtuous was to live life without waste and work toward perfecting yourself, not only physically but also intellectually. Wisdom was in recognizing where you have control in life, and how to achieve smooth progress with small increments, what we call in The Happy Body, "micro-progression." Wisdom also lay in recognizing where you don't have control and learning to let go. The Happy Body Program was developed with the same principles in mind. In three areas of our daily lifestyle practice we have a choice: food (what to eat, how much and when); exercise (the kind that will benefit our body over time and keep...
