Subject: HOLISTIC NUTRITION & ALKALINE DIET TIPS FOR MODERN PEOPLE

The Alkaline lifestyle is not only about what you eat. It is also about what you drink, how you often you move your body, your personal self-care, what you breathe, how you relax and what you think. To sum up the Alkaline Diet Lifestyle it is about HOW YOU LIVE!
You need to set up a strong foundation and change your way of thinking in order to be ready to make some positive changes in your lifestyle and discover a new, balanced you. It helps you become more energized, positive, with a sexy body, a perfect weight, physically/mentally and emotionally stronger, less prone to diseases, glowing skin and strong hair. The list of the alkaline diet benefits is really long!

This book is a motivational and inspirational guide for modern people (21st century + always pressed for time!) who wish to restore their energy levels with Alkalinity and make it easy and fun.

In order to achieve long-term success, you need: 1. Focus 2. Preparation 3. Motivation 4. Knowledge and Creativity
This is why I have written this book. I want to change your mind set about dieting and be ready to embrace health success. Join me and follow through. I can guarantee that you will FALL IN LOVE WITH THE ALKALINE DIET!

Here’s a short preview of what my book is going to teach you:

• Change your mindset about dieting. Forget about “eliminating” and focus on “adding” instead. Nourish your body and mind. Give it the alkaline energy they deserve and are so desperately looking for (this is why they send you symptoms like: low energy levels, fatigue and mental fog- they want to let you know you need to take better care of yourself).
• Embrace alkaline changes and “recruit” your family and friends. Overcome bad environments and obstacles that hold you back from succeeding. Realize that you are having certain limiting beliefs and replace them with new, alkaline-friendly, more empowering ones.
• Carry on your healthy eating lifestyle even when you go out and hang out with family and friends who are not interested in Alkalinity. There is no need to become a martyr. You can still have fun while following certain alkaline rules.
• Keep on track- no matter what, learn how to build up a momentum and attract incredible wellness and health.
• Shopping tips- save your time and make sure you have your delicious alkaline meals and snacks ready.
• Preparation tips- again, save your time!
• How to quit/reduce coffee as well as sodas and caffeinated drinks. (These are acidic and are not supporting your alkaline lifestyle goals.)
• Quick and healthy meal preparation tips.
• BONUS: 20+ alkaline recipes to help you get started!
•Natural, alkaline remedies for common ailments.
Take the first step now. It is always about taking positive and purposeful actions today that will help you create a better and healthier tomorrow. Embrace vibrant health and make it your lifestyle. Overcome obstacles that your mind is coming up with and learn how to transform your mindset in order to BE IN CHARGE!

“This book is gathered from years of training and racing but not only from my triathlon experience but from the experience of champions. I have trained with and raced with elite athletes and winners from all over the world but I started not knowing what I was doing and was scared to death when I did my first race.

This guide takes you from start to finish so you can feel confident and comfortable when you train and race.

Here are some of the comments we have had from readers…

I loved this book!

I have completed a few triathlons- sprint and Olympic distance. This book really simplified what is important to focus on. There is so much to know and learn that sometimes you feel overwhelmed. It is an easy, entertaining read but packed with good knowledge that made a big difference to my racing.

Charlotte Campbell, World Games triathlon gold medallist

I wish this was around before!

I did a number of Triathlons over the last few years. When I first took it up I had to ask people’s advice which at best was disjointed and worst, confusing. I also read some very good stuff on the internet, however this was also disjointed and incomplete. This book would have been ideal, as it puts it all together clearly and concisely.

[Motivation Manifesto] The Motivation Manifesto;The Motivation Manifesto:The Motivation Manifesto

The Motivation Manifesto is a pulsing, articulate, ferocious call to claim our personal power. World-renowned high performance trainer Brendon Burchard reveals that the main motive of humankind is the pursuit of greater Personal Freedom. We desire the grand liberties of choice-time freedom, emotional freedom, social freedom, financial freedom, spiritual freedom. Only two enemies stand in our way: an external enemy, defined as the social oppression of who we are by the mediocre masses, and an internal enemy, a sort of self-oppression caused by our own doubt and fear.

The march to Personal Freedom, Burchard argues, can be won only by declaring our intent and independence, stepping into our personal power, and battling through self-doubt and the distractions of the day until full victory is won. Recalling the revolutionist voices of the past that chose freedom over tyranny, Burchard-at times poetic yet always fierce-motivates us to free ourselves from fear and take back our lives once and for all.

A Curious Mind: The Secret to a Bigger Life

From Academy Award–winning producer Brian Grazer and acclaimed business journalist Charles Fishman comes a brilliantly entertaining peek into the weekly “curiosity conversations” that have inspired Grazer to create some of America’s favorite and iconic movies and television shows—from 24 to A Beautiful Mind.

For decades, film and TV producer Brian Grazer has scheduled a weekly “curiosity conversation” with an accomplished stranger. From scientists to spies, and adventurers to business leaders, Grazer has met with anyone willing to answer his questions for a few hours. These informal discussions sparked the creative inspiration behind many of Grazer’s movies and TV shows, including Splash, 24, A Beautiful Mind, Apollo 13, Arrested Development, 8 Mile, J. Edgar, Empire, and many others.

A Curious Mind is a brilliantly entertaining, fascinating, and inspiring homage to the power of inquisitiveness and the ways in which it deepens and improves us. Whether you’re looking to improve your management style at work or you want to become a better romantic partner, this book—and its lessons on the power of curiosity—can change your life.

The Creator’s Code: The Six Essential Skills of Extraordinary Entrepreneurs

Each of us has the capacity to spot opportunities, invent products, and build businesses—even $100 million businesses.

How do some people turn ideas into enterprises that endure? Why do some people succeed when so many others fail? The Creator’s Code unlocks the six essential skills that turn small notions into big companies. This landmark book is based on 200 interviews with today’s leading entrepreneurs including the founders of LinkedIn, Chipotle, eBay, Under Armour, Tesla Motors, SpaceX, Spanx, Airbnb, PayPal, Jetblue, Gilt Groupe, Theranos, and Dropbox.

Over the course of five years, Amy Wilkinson conducted rigorous interviews and analyzed research across many different fields. From the creators of the companies ranging from Yelp to Chobani to Zipcar, she found that entrepreneurial success works in much the same way. Creators are not born with an innate ability to conceive and build $100 million enterprises. They work at it. They all share fundamental skills that can be learned, practiced, and passed on.

The Creator’s Code reveals six skills that make creators of all kinds of endeavors breakthrough. These skills aren’t rare gifts or slim chance talents. Entrepreneurship, Wilkinson demonstrates, is accessible to everyone. The book’s insights provide core guidance for success in the new world of work.

Mindset: The New Psychology of Success

Mindset is one of those rare books that can help you make positive changes in your life and at the same time see the world in a new way.

A leading expert in motivation and personality psychology, Carol Dweck has discovered in more than twenty years of research that our mindset is not a minor personality quirk: it creates our whole mental world. It explains how we become optimistic or pessimistic. It shapes our goals, our attitude toward work and relationships, and how we raise our kids, ultimately predicting whether or not we will fulfill our potential. Dweck has found that everyone has one of two basic mindsets.

If you have the fixed mindset, you believe that your talents and abilities are set in stone–either you have them or you don’t. You must prove yourself over and over, trying to look smart and talented at all costs. This is the path of stagnation. If you have a growth mindset, however, you know that talents can be developed and that great abilities are built over time. This is the path of opportunity–and success.

Dweck demonstrates that mindset unfolds in childhood and adulthood and drives every aspect of our lives, from work to sports, from relationships to parenting. She reveals how creative geniuses in all fields–music, literature, science, sports, business–apply the growth mindset to achieve results. Perhaps even more important, she shows us how we can change our mindset at any stage of life to achieve true success and fulfillment. She looks across a broad range of
applications and helps parents, teachers, coaches, and executives see how they can promote the growth mindset.

Highly engaging and very practical, Mindset breaks new ground as it leads you to change how you feel about yourself and your future.

“This book is an essential read for parents, teachers, coaches, and others who are instrumental in determining a child’s mind-set, and in turn, his or her future success, as well as for those who would like to increase their own feelings of success and fulfillment.” –Library Journal
