This book focuses on the benefits of exercise for prevention and treatment of chronic brain disorders.  It is a guide for finding the right exercise routine for each individual.  The goal is to show the reader why everyone needs to exercise, especially as we get older.  The brain needs physical exercise both for normal health and for preventing and treating diseases common with aging.How much exercise is needed?  As we see throughout the book there is no one fits all rule with regard to the amount of exercise required.  The key is to make exercise a part of one's daily routine.  The beneficial effect of exercise is transient, lasting days to weeks, so it must be a lifelong pursuit.  Can we exercise too much?  Anything done in excess can potentially be dangerous but with the common sense approach outlined in this book anyone, regardless of underlying health condition, can find some type of exercise that is safe and effective.

Sudden death in athletes is a global problem. Although it is a relatively rare phenomenon (1/100,000 persons), when it does occur, it is often as an incomprehensible event. In fact, it strikes subjects who presumably should be much healthier than the general population. In the previous 20 years, many authors have studied this problem in an attempt to understand the causes and prevent these events, and it has been determined that, in the vast majority of cases, athletes who die suddenly have an underlying heart disease (arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, coronary anomalies, channelopathies, etc.).In most cases these diseases do not produce major symptoms and do not preclude sports activity even at the highest levels, although they do increase the incidence of sudden death. How to discover these diseases in asymptomatic athletes is a hotly debated issue. In particular, there is controversy as to whether all athletes should undergo detailed medical screening, including electrocardiogram, or whether the costs of this screening are too high in relation to the event incidence. The purpose of this book is to accurately analyze the causes of sudden death in athletes and to provide cardiologists and sports physicians with useful tips on how to identify at-risk individuals.

In the early hours of almost every morning during the Covid lockdown in the months of March and April 2021, these poems began mysteriously arriving - like persistent early morning visitors. Curiously, the authors wife was absent for the whole of this time, and much to her amusement, in her place lay an open notebook, a blank page and a pen. Soon nearly 40 poems filled the notebook - Martin never having written poetry in his life before. Although the pandemic provides the foreground for this collection of poems, they have also been prompted by timeless universal themes, symbolised in a snowdrop, a park bench or an olive tree; found in conversations about love and life and death, in news items and random images. But most of all arising out of that deep longing for union and freedom at the source of each of us. The poems are about what it means to be alive and deeply connected to the natural world. In so doing they go to the heart of mindful living and non-dual wisdom.

Sacred sound is a substantial form of spiritual nourishment. Many cultures are rich with spiritual and religious music, but kirtan features ancient mantras - potent sound formulas of transformation and healing - that enrich and enlighten us in ways that other music or self-help methods such as therapy, affirmations, or mindfulness don't. We're far more powerful than we've been led to believe; we're immeasurably more than what meets the eye. In choosing a mantra to dedicate ourselves to, we choose from a vast array of possibilities for the soul - more enchanting and enthralling than any possibility we've encountered in any wonderful dream or fictional world. Due to its efficacy, mantra kirtan has been practiced for thousands of years. That so many are now embracing kirtan in the West demonstrates its universal appeal and its power to nourish us by fulfilling a deep spiritual hunger. Many people describe how mantra meditation allows them to tap into a sacred space within themselves and connect with the Divine. In simple terms, kirtan is the joining of a mantra and the soul in song to establish a heart-connection with the Supreme. Mantra group kirtan is also practiced as a personal daily meditation (japa). In addition to unique spiritual benefits, kirtan and japa offer all the psycho-physical benefits of other types of meditation but are much easier to perform than silent meditation or mindfulness. Prema Kirtan takes us into the world of a specific type of kirtan known as prema-kirtan, or the kirtan that produces prema, divine love. We learn about the history, purpose, practice, and spiritual possibilities that prema-kirtan offers, as well as how the mantra heals psychologically and spiritually, freeing one from self-imposed limitations. Kirtan is deceptively simple and enjoyable yet is deeply rooted in a sophisticated philosophy, which Prema Kirtan concisely covers in three thought-provoking chapters on the nature of Reality. Pranada has studied and practiced bhakti for nearly fifty years. Her first two books, Wise-Love and Bhakti Shakti, won multiple awards. She takes us on a journey into the pragmatic and profound spiritual progression of one who takes up a mantra-meditation practice, and shows how kirtan ends the soul's dark night of material existence when the rising sun of prema, divine love, reveals the security and fullness of the soul's eternal, illuminated, unchanging nature and its relationship with its Supreme Source. You'll learn that kirtan * soars beyond ordinary music* descends from a higher plane* reveals the self, the nature of the world, and transcendental reality* is the central practice of bhakti, the heart and soul of yoga* bathes us in sacred mantras removes our karmic bond* tunes the soul, calms the mind, releases the voice* is the expression of the soul proper* cultures prema, or divine love, the special liberation hidden in the ancient texts
