Book excerpt: Step into a Journey of Heartwarming Americana Imagine the lush, rolling hills of Pennsylvania, where a young girl runs free, her feet kissing the earth with every step. Barefoot in the Hills: A Country Girl's Tale is your personal invitation to walk alongside Emily, whose story unfolds with the wild spirit of nature itself. Born into a life that threads through the seasons, Emily's early years blossom with pure, childlike wonder. As a tomboy deeply connected to her older brother and the land that holds their childhoods, her heart beats to the rhythm of the countryside. Dive into her adventures across the family farm, where fireflies dance and creeks murmur secrets only a country girl would understand. Yet not all journeys follow straight paths. School brings challenges, as Emily's barefoot legacy meets the paved confines of academia, but it's the internal struggle that will captivate you--the tug between the allure of distant horizons and the call of home. Witness the deeply poetic passages of change, from the daffodil's first bloom to the solemn beauty of winter's embrace. Life whirls in a kaleidoscope of experiences: from enchanted snow tunnels to the awe of nature's quietest moments. But as adolescence beckons, it's not just the seasons that change. Emily confronts the lure of city lights, her journey of self-discovery stretching from the East to the West Coast, from college halls to the throes of urban life. When a profound loss calls her back to her roots, Emily must grapple with the essence of who she has become. As she rebuilds the bridge between her past and present, you will feel the resilience of her spirit and the strength of the bonds that tie her to the hills of her heritage. Each chapter of her life--meticulously chronicled in these pages--brings new adventures, relationships, and personal growth. As Emily treads the delicate balance between preservation and change, Barefoot in the Hills offers not just a story, but a sensory experience. Embrace the lessons of living close to nature, discover heartfelt traditions, and indulge in the comfort of rural recipes. Join Emily as she shares her tale with a new generation, her barefoot journey lingering in the soul like the eternal hills that made her. It's an epic for anyone who's ever yearned for simplicity, for love, and for a place to call home.

Download or read book Balanced and Barefoot written by Angela J. Hanscom and published by New Harbinger Publications. This book was released on 2016-04-22 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Angela Hanscom is a powerful voice for balance." —Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods In this important book, a pediatric occupational therapist and founder of TimberNook shows how outdoor play and unstructured freedom of movement are vital for children’s cognitive development and growth, and offers tons of fun, engaging ways to help ensure that kids grow into healthy, balanced, and resilient adults. Today’s kids have adopted sedentary lifestyles filled with television, video games, and computer screens. But more and more, studies show that children need “rough and tumble” outdoor play in order to develop their sensory, motor, and executive functions. Disturbingly, a lack of movement has been shown to lead to a number of health and cognitive difficulties, such as attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), emotion regulation and sensory processing issues, and aggressiveness at school recess break. So, how can you ensure your child is fully engaging their body, mind, and all of their senses? Using the same philosophy that lies at the heart of her popular TimberNook program—that nature is the ultimate sensory experience, and that psychological and physical health improves for children when they spend time outside on a regular basis—author Angela Hanscom offers several strategies to help your child thrive, even if you live in an urban environment. Today it is rare to find children rolling down hills, climbing trees, or spinning in circles just for fun. We’ve taken away merry-go-rounds, shortened the length of swings, and done away with teeter-totters to keep children safe. Children have fewer opportunities for unstructured outdoor play than ever before, and recess times at school are shrinking due to demanding educational environments. With this book, you’ll discover little things you can do anytime, anywhere to help your kids achieve the movement they need to be happy and healthy in mind, body, and spirit.

Download or read book Barefoot Running written by Michael Sandler and published by Crown. This book was released on 2011-09-20 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How could something we have for free—our bare feet—be better for running than $150 shoes? The truth is that running in shoes is high-impact, unstable, and inflexible. Shoes promote a heel-centric ground strike, which weakens your feet, knees, and hips, and leads to common running injuries. In contrast, barefoot running is low-impact, forefoot-centric, stable, and beneficial to your body. It encourages proper form and strengthens your feet in miraculous ways. When you run in shoes, you not only risk developing poor form, but you also hinder the natural relationship with the ground that running facilitates. Barefoot running restores the delightful sensory and spiritual connections to the earth that you were meant to experience. Barefoot Running offers the only step-by-step direction runners need at any age to overcome injuries, run faster than ever, and rediscover the pure joy of running. Once you tear off your shoes and learn to dance with nature, you’ll tread lightly and freely, hearing only the earth’s symphony and feeling only the dirt beneath your feet. Hit the ground running with revolutionary techniques for starting out slowly, choosing minimalist footwear, navigating rough weather and rugged terrain, and building your feet into living shoes.
