Book excerpt: Say Goodbye to Muscle Dysfunction once and for all with Muscle Activation Techniques. This revolutionary approach will give your body the tools to recover, run faster, perform harder, and crush the competition. Greg Roskopf coupled stellar observation skills with his knowledge and expertise in exercise science to develop a paradigm shift. Suffering chronic pain for years from a falling accident when he was nineteen, Greg fervently sought solutions not only for himself but also for his clients. Greg's research led to an epiphany: Muscle tightness wasn't the only cause of limited range of motion, Muscle weakness also played a role ? and a BIG ONE. The muscle tightness was merely a symptom of the root problem; muscle weakness.Using Muscle Activation Techniques to "activate" and strengthen muscles can result in reduced pain, few injuries, and better overall performance levels. This is the shift Greg hopes to inspire: techniques focused on treating the weak muscles over the tight ones. This Jumpstart into MAT program will teach you:1) The correlation between muscle weakness and muscle tightness.2) Basic principles and introductory-level skills for understanding the MAT process.3) How to implement the MAT process into daily work with clients.4) Tools to identify and correct muscular imbalances. In Jumpstart into MAT, Greg Roskopf hopes practitioners will adopt the paradigm shift and learn new skills to allow them to better serve their athletes and clients. He lays the foundational tools to help Physical and Rehabilitative Health professionals treat the problem rather than the symptom. By doing so, they have a better chance of minimizing repeated muscle tightening, recurring pain, and further injury.

Book excerpt: Fully updated to help teachers deal with the new 2016 Grammar Tests, this second edition presents a collection of simple to use, multi-sensory games and activities that will jumpstart pupils’ understanding of grammar in action It includes coverage of the subjunctive and past progressive, selecting which tense is the most definite, identifying when a word is used as a subordinating conjunction/preposition, explaining how a comma can change meaning, and an increased emphasis on the passive. Jumpstart! Grammar will prepare children for any grammar tests on the horizon in an engaging way so that they love playing with words and spinning sentences to make ideas dance. And, of course, they will be able to name the parts if that is what is required. Fun games will focus first on helping children hear the difference various types of grammar can make followed by activities to help them understand what different effects you can create with grammar. Technical terms will only be introduced once the children have established what the various features can do, with a particular focus on those terms that really help children discuss what makes language coherent and effective. This indispensable, practical book celebrates the joys of language and coherent expression; of finding just the right words or phrases to express what you want to say.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we encounter obstacles in our writing, it’s easy to assume the problem is all in our heads. But yoga philosophy teaches us that nothing is all in our heads, in part because our minds are just one layer through which we experience our world. We must make space for the stories to reveal themselves before we write. But how do we do that? Rebecca Lyn Gold tackles that question by introducing the pancha kosha theory in yogic philosophy, which highlights the five layers of awareness through which we experience life. She explores how to balance the philosophy alongside practices that bring awareness to each layer in a way that reveals memories and stories. She also leads readers on a twenty-one day journey that includes yogic practices and writing prompts to find and write your life stories. You will be introduced to yoga poses to open areas of the body where trauma or memories may be stored, breath control practices to stimulate and balance the brain, and meditations with mudras and mantras to gain insight and inspiration. Discover how to write deep, authentic life stories with the insights, lessons, and exercises in From Your Mat to Your Memoir.

This book was released on 2012-07-30 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABOUT THE BOOK In many ways, yoga saved my life. Most yoga practitioners can probably relate to that statement. Through yoga, self-transformation occurs throughout your lifetime in multiple spheres - body, mind, and spirit - to ultimately and continually bring you more in tune with yourself. I realized fairly early on in my yoga-life that I wanted less time in my cubicle at work, and more time on my mat. Back then, I wasn't really sure how I would make that a reality. Now, about a decade later, I teach internationally, I represent Nike as their one and only Global Yoga Ambassador, I'm sponsored by various brands that I really believe in, and I'm blessed with the opportunity to share my journey with you here. I wholeheartedly believe that you can make anything happen for yourself. I believe that you can - and must - seek to discover and live your passion. My yoga practice initiated and established this pathway for me, and I hope my story and my thoughts will inspire you to find the same for yourself. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Leah Kim graduated from UCLA with a degree in Economics, but it wasn't long before she realized her life would be much better spent on the mat than in a cubicle. With the guidance of her first mentor Ally Hamilton, she has devoted her life to yoga, and has had the privilege of regularly practicing with many internationally recognized teachers while living for nearly a decade in the modern-day yoga mecca of Santa Monica. Since the spring of 2009, Leah has been Nike’s Global Yoga Ambassador. She travels on behalf of Nike’s yoga program as their spokesperson and head trainer. She leads Nike Training Club Yoga events, designs yoga programs for Nike, and is featured in Nike media publications. She is currently based in London. EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK In Santa Monica-Los Angeles, they say that now there are as many aspiring yoga teachers as there are aspiring actors. I'm not sure how accurate that statement is, but in recent years, there's certainly been an influx of new yoga teachers not just in Southern California, but globally. This makes it a pretty competitive marketplace, and the question then is, how can you make yourself stand out? The yoga career path is a unique one, different from becoming a teacher at a school or a trainer at a gym. Unlike those career paths, there are fewer definitive credentials and mandatory guidelines for becoming a yoga teacher. It's more like being a professional artist. Sure, you need basic technical training, but what will separate you from others is your personal interpretation, perspective, expression, and communication. The technical information must be balanced by your inspired and impassioned creativity and authentic voice. I think that's what will separate the yoga teacher who just teaches classes from the yoga teacher who creates an abundant yoga career. The first official step to turning your yoga practice into your professional career is to attend a Teacher Training, which is where you will receive a Teacher Training Certificate. But before your first Teacher Training (and you'll more than likely do several throughout your yogi-lifetime), I think it's pretty important to have a good grasp on your practice. What that means to you will be very personal, but I can tell you that my teacher Ally taught me that it doesn't mean you have to be able to stick your ankle behind your head, balance on one hand, or levitate. This was something I had a hard time wrapping my head around at first. I think it was a combination of self-doubt, setting impossible expectations, and fear. Like what you're reading? Buy this book!
