Product reviews for The Pocket Life Coach
Vitality Matters
Typing this review into a word processor I become aware of the tension in my shoulders as I read Pete Chapman's advice on the importance of stretching.
Stretches, sound sleep, restricting your alcohol intake and massage are all key elements in his suggestions for building up strength and flexibility.
I like the emphasis Pete gives to taking time to prepare and enjoy food at regular meal how you eat is as important as what you eat.
Son of a farmer, Pete has a background in bodybuilding, yoga and nutrition - as well as experience in dealing with drug dependency.
This gives a valuable toughness to the text in which he emphasises the importance of mental strength as well as moral and spiritual commitment for taking on life's harder struggles.
A useful checklist on stress management provides positive suggestions that might otherwise be overlooked.
Pete strikes a refreshing balance between bodily needs and inner needs contrasting water and oxygen, for instance, with our more spiritual requirements for appreciation as well as forgiveness.
Important emphasis is given to avoiding black and white thought and developing tolerance.
He takes a contemporary look at the potential for conflict between humanism and fundamentalism and you don't have to agree with all that Chapman says to see that he raises useful questions.
