I recently posted a blurb about the book "It's All In Your Head" - a book that's designed to help people make better fitness and nutrition choices, despite the busy-ness and chaos of today's world.
The book made a lot of sense. It was written to be a helpful motivator, not to be preachy. It's scientifically sound and accurate, but also written with an easy-to-read tone that isn't too clinical. If you're struggling to improve your health choices, this book might be the nudge that you need.
Top ten things you didn't know about the book:
1. Although there are many song lyrics directly quoted or referred to in the text, there are many more buried and not referenced within the text as well.
2. The book has inspired the concept of a medical documentary addressing provider burnout now in the early production phase.
3. The earliest intent of the work was intended to be a simple handout for my patients including some helpful nutrition and exercise tips.
4. The book was not initially intended to be a bio-narrative.
5. Completing the publication process has been my greatest professional challenge to date but also one of my greatest learning experiences.
6. Even after publication, I have a difficult time considering myself a writer.
7. I have writer insecurity.
8. Although I don't fear criticism or questioning of my beliefs or ideas, I do care what people think.
9. Most patients who have read the book and provided me with feedback were most impressed by my willingness to express vulnerability.
10. I was approached by an individual who received and started reading the book on what she described as her darkest day, and it helped her eventually find her way. For this reason, I will always be grateful and consider the book a great success.
