As a top-rated motivational speaker for Lessons in Leadership, whose members include Steven Covey and Ken Blanchard, Dr. Robert Copper has taught thousands of people how to have enough energy for the workday and for their loved ones- the very reasons they are working so hard. Now his research and experience culminates in
High-Energy Living, a groundbreaking program of personal revitalization.
The program is based on four fundamental states of human energy: calm, active, sensory, and heartfelt. Dr. Cooper believes that most people are only utilizing one or two of these energy sources and are therefore susceptible to fatigue, stress, and depression. The book begins with a self-evaluation test to help readers identify which sources of energy they lack. They then learn to make a series of 21 lifestyle switches, such as "forced exhalation" breathing technique that revs up active energy by releasing the hormone catecholamine. With High-Energy Living, readers can tap into all four energy sources at once, unleashing infinite possibilities for a more vigorous life.
