"Psst! Over here. Have I
got a deal for you: "Suppose you could take a magic pill that would
make you feel happy if you were sad, settle you down if you were stressed,
calm your fears and increase your self esteem." Sound good? Well,
there's more. How would you like to become a more effective psychologist?
Perhaps you'd appreciate an alternative to referring clients for
medication? Or maybe you're interested in being prepared to treat what the
Surgeon General has declared to be a national health crisis? Still
uncertain? Ok, what if it's even "better" than a magic pill?
Entirely legal, cheaper than medication, in fact, virtually free, with
side effects that are not only mood-enhancing, but health-enhancing?"

"Change your life, one lap at a time. In Move Your Body,
Tone Your Mind, Kate Hays provides a thoughtful and non-threatening
avenue into exercise. How often can you say you read a book and it
changed your life? Well, this book may or may not have changed my life
(I'll let you know in 20 years), but it certainly changed my
month...". Rebecca Rule, The Concord Monitor.
"This is a treasure of practical wisdom. Knowing that
exercise is good for you doesn't always translate to knowing how to get
moving and stay moving in your own exercise program. Kate Hays talks
plainly about how to do it! I highly recommend this book

Increased exercise has kept me from being sad and discouraged through some
very hard times

and improving themselves in mind and body."

"Move Your Body Tone Your Mood brings to light the amazingly beneficial
relationship between physical movement and mood. Kate Hays' attention to
not only the 'how's' but also the 'why's' of committing to exercise help
provide the motivation some of us may be lacking. Optimism, energy,
confidence, recharged brain chemistry, a measure of prevention against
cycling depressions: How can we stay in our seats?" Lauren Dockett, author of
