April 11, 2016

We have all had moments where we felt alive, empowered, where you were not a spectator to life, but a part of something special. Yoga and fitness instructor Cara Bradley’s new book On the Verge shows you how to be more rather than do more, how to experience rather than simply achieve.

Helene Segura meets people where they are struggling most with quick, easy-to-implement strategies and tactics to kick chaos to the curb in her new book The Inefficiency Assassin: Time Management Tactics for Working Smarter.

Cara Bradley’s On the Verge recaptures the powerful sense of aliveness you’ve felt at the best moments of your life. With enlightening stories and fresh practices, Cara teaches you how to experience what she calls “high-definition, high-voltage living” on purpose, every day. She expertly guides you through the process toward an indescribable sense of fulfillment and empowerment that you may not have thought possible but that was always there, on the “verge” of happening, ready to erupt. Cara Bradley is an author, yoga teacher, mental strength coach, former pro-skater for Team Rollerblade® and entrepreneur having devoted more than three decades to movement disciplines and personal transformation. She is the founder of Verge Yoga in Philadelphia and the cofounder of a non-profit Mindfulness Through Movement, providing full year mindfulness programs to more than a dozen schools in urban Philadelphia.

Helene Segura calls it opportunity’s natural assassin, and in The Inefficiency Assassin: Time Management Tactics for Working Smarter she explains why we do it and steps we can take to stop it. She also will help with how to make better decisions and implement them into the workplace as well as avoiding going into a tailspin when things don’t go as planned.
