How important is MIND in sports?
We all know sports are all about physical fitness and physical endurance. What we also know for fact is sport people do not attach much important on another important aspect - MIND MANAGEMENT.
Athletes may possess 100% physical fitness but if he/she is not mentally fit, the physical fitness is as good as not having it at all. So what is Mental Fitness?
Physical training teaches the body the physical attributes and tunes the body to use the skills of the sport, while mental training teaches the nuances of focus and mind control and the ways to enhance the performance.
It is important to realize the enormous power of thought and its effect on performance. Sport people in particular achieve peak performance when the BODY, MIND and EMOTIONS are synchronized at the same level and on the same goal.

Biblical Leadership, Developing Church Volunteers
Schaumburg, IL (ContentDesk) January 4, 2006 -- The American success syndrome will tempt the best among us with its low-investment-rapid return tactics toward leadership. Christian leaders, however, need a fresh look at accepting and applying biblical leadership principles.Notable author Kenneth O. Gangel says in his new book, "biblical theology rests at the foundation of our understanding of Christian leadership. I do not think that leadership is a subset of the social scienceslike psychology, sociology--with its main task being how to deal with people. We can learn a lot from those fields, but for the Christian, leadership is a biblical and theological issue.

Please bear in mind that I am not a dietician, or a physician, and my opinions are those of a Yoga teacher and life-long student of Ayurveda. Always consult your family physician before changing your diet.It may be generally agreed that eating wisely and weight loss do not often agree. Just look back that the parade of "fad diets" that didn't seem to work over the long term and, in retrospect, were not wise from the onset.This article will be a "union" of ideas from Ayurvedic principles, modern fitness concepts, and overall strategies for better health.It goes without saying that a vegetarian diet is healthy. Only a decade ago, there were many reservations, among local physicians in New England, in regard to this concept. How rapidly knowledge, insight, and opinions change.Marie, my wife, exposed me to the vegetarian diet.
Before that, I ate what is now called the "Mediterranean Diet." The diet I eat, to this day, is a combination of the two. The combination of these two, "classic"...
