Sports vision is an often-overlooked area that can be leveraged for improved performance. Most athletes invest in equipment and training without ever thinking about their vision.
Many scientific studies have highlighted the relationship between vision and on-field performance, and most professional sports teams employ a sports vision specialist to ensure all team members have optimal vision and visual function for success.
This book, written by one of the premier sports vision specialists, details the knowledge gained over a 30+ year career working with Professional Athletes from all major sports from Premier League football to Olympic athletes, as well as almost every Professional league in the USA.
Beginning with a detailed review of how and why vision is important in sports, the book takes the reader on a journey through the vision system, identifying the areas critical to performance.
This book spotlights the different areas that impact sports performance. From basic visual abilities (spoiler alert: 20/20 vision is not normal for an elite athlete and is rarely enough for optimal performance) to how the brain uses vision to make a decision and then how an athlete uses vision to make a perfectly executed motor action.

In the 1960s and ’70s, the waters of Washington State boiled with conflict.
Because of state actions and policies, Washington Tribes had long been denied their fair share of the salmon harvest granted by treaties adopted by the US government and the Tribes in 1854. Tribal members staged “fish-ins” and other demonstrations, and ultimately pursued a federal lawsuit against the state. Decided in 1974 by US district court judge George H. Boldt, the landmark ruling gave Tribes an equal share of fish, meaning yields for non-Native fishermen plummeted. As a result, many non-Native commercial fishing businesses closed, and chaos and legal disputes continued into the 1980s. All the while, the number of salmon available for harvest steadily declined.
During this post-Boldt period, a group of Tribal and government leaders collectively decided change was sorely needed. Through collaboration, they forged major, seemingly unattainable agreements to cooperatively manage fisheries, all while protecting and enhancing salmon runs. Author Bill Wilkerson, then fisheries director for the state of Washington, and legendary Tribal leader Billy Frank Jr. were among a select group of courageous visionaries who worked to bring peace to state waters and reverse the steady decline of salmon runs. Without Frank’s dedicated participation in these talks, legitimizing the process in the view of local Tribes, it’s unlikely these agreements would have ever been made. In Common With is an insider’s look at a number of successful negotiations between historic adversaries. They included an international salmon treaty between the US and Canada, a long-term cooperative management agreement between the state and Tribes, and a major accord between the state, Tribes, and forestland managers to protect salmon habitat on privately owned forestlands.
This groundbreaking feat of diplomacy and partnership revealed the power of honoring one another’s opinions, needs, and wants. This spirit of cooperation and dedication to common ground serves as a shining example for contemporary leaders in today’s polarized political landscape.

Sometimes, herding cats seems easier than herding teenagers.
"Cats, Dogs and Moving Day" is your indispensable guide to navigating the tumultuous waters of parenting teenagers. This insightful book offers two powerful metaphors to shed light on the adolescent journey.
First, "children are dogs and teenagers are cats" illuminates the dramatic shifts in behavior and attitudes as children transition into adolescence.

The second metaphor, "adolescence is the day before moving day," equips parents with the tools to assist their teens in "packing their boxes" for the transition from childhood to adulthood. It encourages parents to engage their teens in deciding which values, skills, and qualities from their family of origin they wish to carry forward. At the same time, it empowers them to leave behind what no longer serves them.

Have you ever wondered how to attain true spiritual enlightenment and awareness, even in a world where the path seems unclear?
This book describes the practical methodology of becoming fully spiritually aware and enlightened. It is written by someone who has walked the path when there was no path. I weave my stories, examples and mystical experiences throughout.
Part 1 lays a basic spiritual foundation explaining how we are animated by the Spirit of God. How our creation happened. What a soul is. The importance of keeping our eternal nature in mind.

It explains the role of religion and what a spiritual master looks like.
Part 2 explains 19 awareness that lead to enlightenment. This awareness gives the seeker insight into ways they have been taught to think and act that has led them away from their wholeness/holiness. Then we examine the proper thought process, with practices at the end of each chapter to solidify the new awareness.
I guarantee that anyone that implements these awareness in their life, will be able to step out of the drama, become filled with joy, love, peace and power and will be able to create their desired reality. Grab your copy today!
