Refreshing approach to health and wellness

This is a great book to take and read on the plane. It's a quick, easy read and shares the secret of those of us who've been avid exercisers for years and years...and that's the joy that you experience in the moment, while you're exercising. This book teaches you how to connect with your thoughts, feelings and perceptions as you exercise, which ultimately will lead to your becoming a person who exercises for the fun of it, not because of health, weight or appearance issues, and that's the key to life-long exercising success :-) This is a book I recommend so highly, I actually have link to it on my website.

great information

I have read about 30 book on fitness and nutrition and saw this in an article in Shape magazine. This book is not like the typical book about why you need to lose and all the benefits of exercise.This book talks about a new way of finding more joy and interest on exercise it's not about sweating for 30 minutes and hating it's about using different techniches with your mind how to make fitness more enjoyable.
