Learn to look and feel your best as you discover a new perspective on your mind, body, and health
In The Power of Ownership: Redeem Your Health, Live Life by Design, and Break the Relentless Pursuit of Normal, author Justin Roethlingshoefer delivers a transformative tool for empowerment designed to enable you to take control of your health in a holistic and personalized way. After managing the health, wellness and performance of the best athletes in the world for more than a decade, the failure to do that for himself almost cost him his life, and fueled his mission to solve this problem for not just athletes but high achieving people pursuing a mission.
Avoiding robotic and cookie-cutter approaches, Roethlingshoefer offers the tools, systems, and processes you need to rebuild your life and health in a way that makes sense for you and your body. The book is a simple, actionable, and relatable tool—instead of a textbook or loose collection of stories—located at the intersection of art and cutting-edge health science. It’s filled with lessons you’ll be able to understand with ease and apply to your life immediately. You’ll find:
- Strategies you can use to ensure your new health journey is a sustained and effective one that helps you manage stress and avoid burnout
- Discussions exploding the “Myth of Normal” that breeds shame, fear, guilt, and confusion by normalizing stress and fatigue
- Explorations of the power and value of a life by design and ways to help you live differently according to what your body requires
An essential and inspiring resource for anyone who wants to look and feel better, The Power of Ownership will transform the way you think about and achieve health for your and your team.
