Mind and body fitness

"When considering the term 'fitness,' the first things that probably come to your mind are activities like going to the gym, maintaining a healthy body weight, and drinking plenty of water.

While being 'fit' on a physical basis is one of most effective ways to ensure maximum quality of life and will be discussed in great detail throughout this book, there is another side to fitness that has seemingly taken a back seat to the obesity epidemic. This no-less-important variable in what constitutes overall fitness is mental health, and things are not looking so good in this area either"--Provided by publisher.
