THE JOYFUL ATHLETE
The Wisdom of the Heart in Exercise &
Sports Training

How can athletes train for
maximum performance and
joy? George Beinhorn, a veteran runner who worked as an
editor at Runner’s World, was
paralyzed from the chest down
for three years. No sooner had
he recovered than a spiritual
teacher urged him to start running—there
would be no time for self-pity. For the next 40
years, he studied the careers of hundreds of athletes and discovered ways to make training both
scientific and personally rewarding. The Joyful
Athlete tells a riveting story of groundbreaking research that reveals why our bodies thrive
when we cultivate expansive thoughts and feelings, and how scores of athletes at all levels have
found success by “feeling-based training.”

Fear can be as damaging to
our health as smoking, stress,
or poor nutrition. But it can
also be a blessing, waking
us up to what needs healing
in our lives. Doctor Lissa
Rankin, author of Mind Over
Medicine, studied the link between fear and disease, and offers a journey of
transformation—if we’re willing to take it. In
The Fear Cure, we learn that fearful thoughts
create physiological changes. We learn to
distinguish between true fear and false fear,
tune into our courageous “Inner Pilot-Light,”
change our dread of uncertainty into a doorway of possibilities, and free the part of ourselves that is never afraid.
Padma Venkatraman
A TIME TO DANCE
Nancy Paulsen Books, $17.99
Veda is a young girl with a
talent and passion for classical Indian dance, but a car
accident leaves her learning
to dance again from scratch
with a prosthetic foot. The
story of her resulting spiritual growth weaves an intricate web of love and support shared between
family and friends, students and teachers. The
entire novel is told through Veda’s own poetry, vivid and moving in its immediacy. This
is a beautiful gem of a book, and exactly what
young-adult fiction needs as a balance to the
current dystopian trends.

Chloe Goodchild gives readers the tools to
guide them in a process of sound healing and
soul communication that is guar
