The Village Girl Grew Up By: Roselidah Obunaga From her humble beginnings, Roselidah was always determined to dream big. Her faith and the support from her late parents served as catalyst into the person who she is now. Since her youthful age and growing into adulthood, Rose has continued to pursue her love for volleyball. She has progressively coached and reached out to the communities that helped her develop as well as local communities. This story is about Rose’s journey as she navigated difficult situations with both loss and triumphs. As Nelson Mandela said, “After climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb.” Rose believes there is still more she would like to do to expand her passion of the volleyball game”. Her story is one that shows how an ordinary person can have a drastic impact on so many lives.
When our bodies start to feel stiff, sore, or tired, we often say that we're "getting old." But is that really the problem? In this groundbreaking work, Thomas Hanna shows that much of the physical decline associated with aging is not inevitable but avoidable. Building on the work of Moshe Feldenkrais, Hanna's practical program for the mind and body proves once and for all that problems you've always thought of as the symptoms of age--stiffness, bad back, chronic pain, fatigue, and, at times, even high blood pressure--need never occur if you maintain conscious control of your nerves and muscles. He shows how the body can turn a habitual action into an involuntary, destructive pattern called sensory-motor amnesia, and demonstrates a simple but effective method for conquering these habits with sensory-motor awareness. With only a five-minute routine once a day, you can maintain the pleasures of a limber, healthy body indefinitely and escape the confines of age or injury. Practical and easy to use, Somatics is the essential guide to reversing the physical effects of aging--or staving them off before they even begin.
We've been sold a lie: The world tells us that pain is inevitable, that our bodies must break down as we age, and that there's nothing we can do about it. Researchers develop new drugs to manage our pain; surgeons dream up new techniques to repair worn-out joints. But we never truly feel better. Here's the shocking truth: The vast majority of the pain that plagues our aging bodies is self-inflicted. It's caused by the way we use our bodies every day: the way we sit, the way we stand, the way we walk and run, even the way you open a jar of pasta sauce. But with simple exercises, anybody can learn to heal their chronic musculoskeletal pain, and prevent future pain, injury, and joint problems f...
