Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Top pediatric and family wellness expert provides insider's knowledge on how every parent can easily raise healthy, happy and well-adjusted kids. All parents want what is best for their kids, not only as young children but also as they grow up to become parents themselves. Most parents, however, lack the time and knowledge to successfully teach their kids constructive habits that will lead them to a lifetime of physical and mental health. More than 60% of Americans are currently suffering from at least one chronic illness such as obesity, high blood pressure and diabetes. At the same time, the U.S. makes up only 4% of the world's population yet spends more than 50% of the world's healthcare dollars on treating the 4%. Obviously more medicine is not the only answer to solving our nation's healthcare crisis, which continues to intensify in epic proportions. Pediatric and family wellness doctor and CEO of DREAM Wellness, Brian Stenzler, M.Sc., D.C., will teach you how those in the health and wellness field raise their kids. How do they think about health? How do they feed their kids? How do they build solid relationships with their children and others? This book includes a complimentary lifestyle assessment, the DREAM Score, which serves as an indicator of your current health status as well as a predictor of your kids' future health and well-being. The report will guide you through the book to assist you in areas where improvement is most needed. "Your children are a reflection of you, and their future will be greatly influenced by what you do and teach them. As kids love to play follow the leader, this book should inspire you to be the leader you want your children to follow. After implementing some easy steps within this book, you and your family can be living the DREAM, every day!"

Book excerpt: An in-depth mental motivational book for all athletes from Olympian Dr. Joanna Zeiger that offers game-changing strategies for programming your brain to achieve physical excellence. Champions, as the familiar adage preaches, are not born—they're made. Reaching the top of any sport, or any aspect of life, takes years upon years of dedication and proper preparation. But if there's a huge pool of individuals who have undertaken the same commitment and steps towards becoming the best, what truly separates the winners from everyone else? Joanna Zeiger believes proper mental preparation is the answer. The Champion Mindset is a much-needed and long overdue look into how to program a competitor's mind to achieve optimal success. Changing behaviors and ways of thinking are never easy, but the chapters in this book aim to simplify this process to make it manageable and achievable. This book is for every athlete—from the weekend warrior, who wants to complete in his or her first 5k running race, to those who have aspirations of one day becoming Olympians and world champions. The Champion Mindset is a compendium of Zeiger's own personal journey from struggling novice swimmer to Olympian and World Champion. Through steps including: Proper Goal Setting, Keeping it Fun, Building Your Team, Intention in Training, Improving Motivation, Promoting Self-Confidence, and Mind/Body Cohesion, among others, Zeiger uses her decades of personal experience, doctoral-level research, and professional success, to prepare readers to go all-in with their mental game.
