Mässiges Essen, Schlafen, Reisen, und Arbeiten sind Punkte, welche jeden betreffen und jeder kann etwas dafür tun, um die Erde zu erhalten.

Dies ist mit der zukünftigen Generation zu vereinbaren, und natürlich liegt es in jeder individuellen Verantwortung bewusst und weise zu handeln.Homo sapiens, der Weise Mensch, ist noch auf dem Weg zu lernen, doch geben uns ursprüngliche Geschichten und mutige Persönlichkeiten einen Ausblick auf Hoffnung.Diese Hoffnung soll auch hier in diesen Zeilen anklingen, denn Minimalismus ist zeitnah, historisch autorisiert, und der erste Schritt zur Besserung.Der Mensch kann sich wandeln, und für das Gute stehen, egal wo auf der Welt. Mit diesem Buch wird aufgezeigt, wie jeder einen kleinen Schritt zu einer schönen Zukunft machen kann.Das Leben hat so viele Eigenheiten, und so soll dieses Buch diese Themen erleuchten:Wie kann der Einzelne praktisch minimal leben?Welche Probleme können durch Minimalismus gelöst werden?Welche Nebenwirkungen erlebt das Individuum dadurch?Wie lebt sich Einfachheit im Minimalismus?Welche Ernährung, Reisen, Angewohnheiten und Lebensweisen sind besonders nachhaltig?Wo bleibt die Freude bei dieser Praxis?

Running Free

Richard Askwith wanted more. Not convinced running had to be all about pounding pavements, buying fancy kit and racking up extreme challenges, he looked for ways to liberate himself. His solution: running through muddy fields and up rocky fells, running with his dog at dawn, running because he's being (voluntarily) chased by a pack of bloodhounds, running to get hopelessly, enjoyably lost, running fast for the sheer thrill of it. Running as nature intended. Part diary of a year running through the Northamptonshire countryside, part exploration of why we love to run without limits, Running Free is an eloquent and inspiring account of running in a forgotten, rural way, observing wildlife and celebrating the joys of nature, that offers a welcome alternative to the commercialism of running.

Where in the Om Am I?: One Woman's Journey from the Corporate World to the Yoga Mat

Now a cult classic, Where in the Om Am I? is an irreverent, honest, and hilarious memoir of a woman’s journey from the corporate world to the perilous world of yoga. Sara has invested years dutifully climbing the corporate ladder to become head of public relations at a major financial-services company, but she can’t shake the feeling that she’s not where she belongs. When her latest boss, a wine-guzzling, drama-loving diva, finally drives her to the brink, Sara seeks sanctuary in yoga-teacher training—only to encounter an entirely different assortment of craziness and calamity. Where in the OM Am I? chronicles one woman’s journey from the fast-paced, cutthroat corporate world to the slow-paced, surprisingly catty, and sometimes perilous world of yoga. Along the way, Sara confronts the harsh reality of working in a male-dominated industry, the challenges of being a corporate interloper in the yoga community, and the complexity of interactions between women in both realms. As epic mishaps beget personal revelations, Sara digs deep for the courage to forge a new life for herself.

Up to Speed: The Groundbreaking Science of Women Athletes

"Up to Speed is a roadmap and toolbox for athletes of all ages. Every coach should read it and discuss it with their athletes. I wish I had been able to read this book while I was competing." -Kara Goucher, Olympic long-distance runner and author of The Longest Race How the latest science can help women achieve their athletic potential Over the last fifty years, women have made extraordinary advances in athletics. More women than ever are playing sports and staying active longer. Whether they're elite athletes looking for an edge or enthusiastic amateurs, women deserve a culture of sports that helps them thrive: training programs and equipment designed to work with their bodies, as well as guidelines for nutrition and injury prevention that are based in science and tailored to their lived experience. Yet too often the guidance women receive is based on research that fails to consider their experiences or their bodies. So much of what we take as gospel about exercise and sports science is based solely on studies of men. The good news is, this is finally changing. Researchers are creating more inclusive studies to close the gender data gap. They're examining the ways women can boost athletic performance, reduce injury, and stay healthy. Sports and health journalist Christine Yu disentangles myth and gender bias from real science, making the case for new approaches that can help women athletes excel at every stage of life, from adolescence to adulthood, through pregnancy, menopause, and beyond. She explains the latest research and celebrates the researchers, athletes, and advocates pushing back against the status quo and proposing better solutions to improve the active and athletic lives of women and girls.
