Dai Manuel's Whole Life Fitness Manifesto: 30 Minutes a Day for a Healthier Body, Mind and Spirit
A colorful, dynamic blend of inspiring philosophy and practical workouts that anyone can follow to enhance physical and mental wellbeing for life.
In this book, trainer, motivational speaker, father, and entrepreneur Dai Manuel offers a plan that anyone can follow to create health and wellbeing in both mind and body. Is it possible to get physically fit without taking care of the other aspects of you? Sure. But it’s much harder to get going and keep going, and much less fun. Loaded with concrete workouts, meditation exercises, nutrition advice, and personal development prompts, this book provides the tools to create a “FUNctionally fit”
“The highest reward for our toil is not what we get for it but what we become by it. … Mistakes are not failures. They are proof that we are making an effort. When we understand that, we can more easily move out of our comfort zone, try something new, and improve. … Improvement demands a commitment to grow long after the mood in which it was made has passed.” —John Maxwell
BIGGEST LESSON LEARNED:
“Don't be on your deathbed someday, having squandered your one chance at life, full of regret because you pursued little distractions instead of big dreams.”
Best Science:
Treatment with infrared light therapy is simple and painless. Flexible pads, each containing multiple infrared lights, are placed directly on the skin over the area of pain or injury. Energy from the lights penetrates beneath the skin and is absorbed by deep tissues.
Hosts best choice: DPL II Light
Therapy System
The DPL II red & infrared LED light therapy system covers the largest treatment area in this list, and contains 96 infrared bulbs (880 nm), 32 dark red bulbs (660 nm), 32 red bulbs (630 nm) and 32 amber bulbs (530 nm).
DPL Panel System pros
Large treatment area
2-panels – can be attached to any area with the Velcro strap
Hands-free operation
Timer and auto shut-off
Easy to use
Cons
Not a great fit for travel due to size
May not feel comfortable directly on skin

In 2009 Bronnie wrote an online article called Regrets of the Dying about her time as a palliative carer. Working with dying people and developing close relationships with them during their last weeks resulted in raw, honest conversations about life and death, including what the patients wished they had done differently.
