Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amazing journeys begin with a single step, but only the dedicated keep walking. Short-listed for Outdoor Book of the Year by The Great Outdoors Magazine Every year thousands of adventurers attempt to hike all 2,180 miles of the gruelling and unforgiving Appalachian Trail. Around five months later, beaten and bruised, those who finish are known as thru-hikers. Keith Foskett weaves a true-life tale that's as thought-provoking as it is entertaining. Accompanied by an array of eclectic characters - including a world-champion juggler, a drug dealer, and a sex-starved builder from Minnesota - he takes the reader on a compelling adventure that pushes the limits of both endurance and imagination. During his five months living in the woods, Foskett's psychological apprehensions are stretched to the limit against the wild elements of nature. By turns humorous and harrowing, his journey allows him to overcome his fears while reflecting on the man he's meant to be. His adventure weaves a route through some of America's wildest landscapes and history, and is told with insight, humour and reflection. Perhaps he too will tame the most renowned long-distance hiking trail in the world, and emerge as a thru-hiker. Reviews for Balancing on Blue "A highly anticipated Appalachian Trail memoir, and well worth the wait." Daniel Neilson (The Great Outdoors Magazine) "Long distance hikes are simultaneously life-affirming and total agony. Walking 2000 miles would be a phenomenal journey wherever in the world you did it. To tackle the legendary Appalachian Trail is a truly special experience, and one I dream of attempting sometime in my life. Amongst the bears, moose and rattlesnakes, climbing to 2000 metres, and countless aches and pains lives the memory of a special journey, the wonderful people who briefly share the experience with you, and the knowledge that lasts long after the final blister has healed. It's a lifetime's worth of adventurous memories crammed into one simple walk." Alastair Humphreys (Author, adventurer and a National Geographic Adventure of the Year) "With thru-hiking gaining in popularity, many look to the Appalachian Trail to test out their trail legs, and discover why it holds the reputation it does. The wilds of this planet are serene, peaceful and offer the chance to break away from a normal existence. Keith's wonderful perspective of the trail reflects this freedom." Jennifer Pharr Davis (Author and previous record holder for the fastest ever thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail). "An entertaining and inspiring account of one of the world's longest walks and the people who walk it. Keith is a perfect walking companion for the ups and downs of the trail - his easy and understated style kept me turning the pages. Essential reading for those contemplating their own big adventure." David Lintern (Editor - Outdoor Enthusiast Magazine) "This book is for anyone who's ever dreamed about a big adventure, as Fozzie spins a funny, thought-provoking and inspiring tale of thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail. You'll be handing in your notice and packing up your rucksack as soon as you've finished reading." Jenny Walters (Country Walking Magazine) "Long distance backpacking trips can be monotonous, and it's often the same story for most books about them. Balancing on Blue is something completely different and once again, Keith invites you to the world that he calls home. Be prepared for great story telling, unique and interesting characters, humour and insight." Andrew Skurka (Long distance hiker, adventurer and National Geographic Adventurer of the Year 2007).

Download or read book Balancing Water for Humans and Nature written by Johan Rockstrom and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Balancing Water for Humans and Nature, authored by two of the world's leading experts on water management, examines water flows - the 'blood stream' of both nature and society - in terms of the crucial links, balances, conflicts and trade-offs between human and environmental needs. The authors argue that a sustainable future depends fundamentally on our ability to manage these trade-offs and encourage long-term resilience. They advocate an ecohydrological approach to land/water/environmental problems and advance a strong, reasoned argument for viewing precipitation as the gross fresh water resource, ultimately responsible for sustaining all terrestrial and aquatic ecosystem services. This book makes the most coherent and holistic argument to date for a new ecological approach to understanding and managing water resources for the benefit of all. Basing their analysis on per capita needs for an acceptable nutritional diet, the authors analyse predictions of the amounts of water needed for global food production by 2050 and identify potential sources. Drawing on small-scale experiences in Africa and Asia, they also cover the vulnerability of the semi-arid tropics through a simplified model of green and blue water scarcity components.

Hello, I’m Robyn a very passionate Clinical Aromatherapist and Reiki Master. I pray I have produced this book to suit beginners and non-believers to work effectively on each chakra. That they, like me, experience little miracles happening often from shifting energy, as they work through chakra balancing. I have designed the book from a teachers, point of view. If you do not put the instructions into practice, as though you are going to be tested, you will not acquire the many benefits energy healing offers. As a catholic child Catholicism, and lovely caring parents, Aunts, great aunties and other wonderful relatives kept me happy. Bam! Then you grow up and leave the safety net of everyone you know, who are well balanced, happy, and loves you. Prayers stopped working for me. I was searching for a way to be happy again. To cut a long story short my mother took me to a Hindi Kundalini workshop. It was too far from anything understandable for me. This workshop by a gentle-natured woman from India caused me, to think my mother had gone mad. So, mum said, well maybe you need to turn your hands-on-healing skills into Reiki or some other form of energy work. I chose to add Reflexology to my skills and joined a yoga group. Then in the 1980s the internet came to Australia. My youngest brother gave me a very old book he bought the home from India about Ayurvedic medicine and vertexes of energy. This book sent me out there exploring. On the internet. Now I invite you to join my journey and learn of the miracles that changed my life. I pray you to work on your chakras and start manifesting a wonderful life. This book is a condensed version on what now has become - my daily practice. A simple to-the-point guide on how to balance your chakras and why it works. The essential oils that create a healing type of smell therapy. Crystals that help with energy shifting, the basics of Hands-On-Healing I now call Reiki, colour therapy, visualization techniques, and more. What I have learned and gained from my students' comments is:- The confusion comes when everyone tells you to meditation takes 20 minutes or more, and to have a blank mind. Chakra balancing will take a few minutes to an hour. Because of the types of questions my new students have asked - I believe you need to work out what each chakra means to you, personally and write it down. Memorize and put in your unconscious mind bank. This is a journey and as time goes by you will change what you have written. After your first draft, you can balance your chakras daily within a minute. I pray I have produced this book to suit beginners and non-believers to work effectively on each chakra. That they, like me, will experience little miracles happening often. Enjoy. Love Robyn xxx
