Historia
This book is about pleasure. It’s also about pain. Most important, it’s about how to find the delicate balance between the two, and why now more than ever finding balance is essential. We’re living in a time of unprecedented access to high-reward, high-dopamine stimuli: drugs, food, news, gambling, shopping, gaming, texting, sexting, Facebooking, Instagramming, YouTubing, tweeting....

told me what to do and how to do it without telling me how to go about it.
Funny. Elegant. Articulate. And just enough words to get the point across.
I came to read a book on how to write and was shown what a good book looks and sounds and feels like by example.
Wow. what a read this was.
Thank you Anne!

Historia
Can’t Hurt Me, David Goggins’ smash hit memoir, demonstrated how much untapped ability we all have but was merely an introduction to the power of the mind. In Never Finished, Goggins takes you inside his Mental Lab, where he developed the philosophy, psychology, and strategies that enabled him to learn that what he thought was his limit was only his beginning and that the quest for greatness is unending.

Historia
From the best-selling author of Kafka on the Shore comes this rich and revelatory memoir about writing and running and the integral impact both have made on his life. Equal parts training log, travelogue, and reminiscence, this revealing memoir covers Murakami's four-month preparation for the 2005 New York City Marathon. Settings range from Tokyo, where he once shared the course with an Olympian, to the Charles River in Boston, among young women who outpace him.

Historia
Physician and biochemist Cate Shanahan, MD, examined diets around the world known to help people live longer, healthier lives - diets like the Mediterranean, Okinawa, and Blue Zone - and identified the four common nutritional habits, developed over millennia, that unfailingly produce strong, healthy, intelligent children and active, vital elders generation after generation. These four nutritional strategies - fresh food, fermented and sprouted foods, meat cooked on the bone, and organ meats - form the basis of the Human Diet.

A fantastic book that I utilize much of in my practice as a lifestyle and nutrition coach to great success.
Her ability to cut through the dietary dogma should be applauded.
Thank you both for standing up against the tyrannical forces surrounding food.

Historia
Joe De Sena has spent his life running toward challenge and discomfort. Why? Because how we react to challenging situations defines us and our families. The only tools we have as humans to survive the many peaks and valleys of a full life are preparedness, health, leadership, and most importantly, resilience. Why do so many parents struggle to finish things we start, delay gratification, and protect our health - and why do our kids continue to struggle in every facet of life? Because we haven’t showed them a path to resilience, and we haven’t fought for it ourselves.

I am an avid supporter of Joe, so I tend to enjoy his message.
This book was no different.
A useful and easy read with gems in every chapter.
The colorful stories illuminate the ideas he presents.
I am grateful to the fact that this man and his family exist to draw inspiration from. To watch them lead by example. To be the examples of what they want to see in the world.
You can see Dr Laura’s soft and elegant touch on the book in a delightful way.
Impressive. Yet again Joe. Bravo. Cheers to you both!

Historia
In We Are What We Eat, Alice Waters urges us to take up the mantle of slow food culture, the philosophy at the core of her life’s work. When Waters first opened Chez Panisse in 1971, she did so with the intention of feeding people good food during a time of political turmoil. Customers responded to the locally sourced organic ingredients, to the dishes made by hand, and to the welcoming hospitality that infused the small space - human qualities that were disappearing from a country increasingly seduced by takeout, frozen dinners, and prepackaged ingredients.

Pioneering systemic change and making it approachable.
Revisado: 10-20-21
Wow, what a book!
Alice articulately weaves through the murky waters of the food industry.
From how the food is grown, picked, and transported. How those farms and farmers are treated and paid. To how we choose, buy, and create our dishes at home or at work.
Expressing the deep need for reformation of the food system in schools. As well as how we teach children about food and nature and growing foods.
She breaks it down into words that help you to describe fast food or slow food cultures around you.
Encouraging the world to embrace a slow food culture that directly fights against the fast food culture and its many faces.
Through thinking globally and acting locally, we can make change in our lives. In our communities. In our families.
Thank you for stewarding these powerful ideas Alice Waters.
For beginning your restaurant with all of its’ powerful concepts and ideas with all of it’s forward thinking, for writing this book, the world owes you a debt.
From one humble man trying to bring the same changes. I see you. Thank you.

Historia
There's a silent epidemic in Western civilization, and it is right under our noses. Our jaws are getting smaller and our teeth crooked and crowded, creating not only aesthetic challenges but also difficulties with breathing. Sandra Kahn and Paul R. Ehrlich, a pioneering orthodontist and a world-renowned evolutionist, respectively, present the biological, dietary, and cultural changes that have driven us toward this major health challenge. They propose simple adjustments that can alleviate this developing crisis.

This book does such an amazing job of articulating and weaving together a great deal of the massive amounts of cross-genre topics involved in the jaw. Breathing. Eating. Food quality. Permaculture. Posture. Disease. Pharmacology. Politics. And many more.
Big thanks to the fantastic authors for their bravery and perseverance against the system laid out to us.
A must read!

Fifth grade was the worst year of Marc's life. He stunk at gym class, math was too hard for him, the school lunch was horrible, and his class field trip was ruined because he couldn't swim. But what was the most awful thing about fifth grade? Kenny Williamson, the class bully, who called himself the "King of the Jungle". When Marc's mother tells him that his uncle Jake is coming to stay for the whole summer, Marc can't wait. Uncle Jake is a for-real super-cool Navy SEAL. And Uncle Jake has a plan.

After that initial feeling of doubt in the book and not really knowing what it was about. I really enjoyed this book and am a huge fan!
Read well!
