After a long holiday weekend of good times and relaxation, we’re looking forward to our new projects that start this week. Together these books will reinforce your business, fitness, and creative needs. We’re glad to see that each of these authors has put social media to use in one or more ways to support the publicity of their books.
There’s an intangible and invisible marketplace within our lives today where the products traded are four fold: attention, distraction, data and meaning. The stories and examples within Consider demonstrate that the best decisions, insights, ideas and outcomes result when we take sufficient time to think and reflect. While technology allows us to act and react more quickly than ever before, we are taking increasingly less time to consider our decisions before we make them.

Naked Fitness is not about working out in the nude. And it’s not about being dressed in the best workout attire either. Naked Fitness is about stripping away all the clutter that stops you from getting your wonderful, beautiful body into the best shape possible. It’s about breaking down the barriers and fears that are keeping you from becoming motivated and staying on track. It’s about learning how to move your body without pain, align it to its fullest potential, and recognize how the correct alignment impacts your daily health. Naked Fitness is not just another exercise book. Instead, it uniquely tailors a solution specific to your body and build. Learn more about Naked Fitness on the book’s website and stay up-to-date with author Andrea Metcalf on Twitter and Facebook. Naked Fitness from Vanguard Press is available for pre-order on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
