Produktbeschreibung
Overcome fear in water without taking risks. A swimmer needs to know more than how to go from here to there. The ability to rest in deep water saves lives...not strokes. Every person needs to be peaceful in deep water going nowhere. Fear is healed by feeling safe, taking small comfortable steps, and being in control all the time. It is kept in place by pushing oneself and rushing. The following teachings in the book make every last person successful: · Overcome fear without risking your safety, control, or dignity. · Comfort comes first. If you're comfortable, everything else in aquatics is possible. It's okay to relax, but please do not ask yourself to. "Heresy!" · Get your safety from yourself, not the bottom or the side. · It's okay if your feet touch the bottom when you float in shallow water. · Learn to be comfortable being still in deep water. · "Strokes are merely choreography" for efficiency. · Say goodbye to shame. Do you wish you could swim? Every single point and conversation, exercise and thought experiment you need to be successful is explained. Strokes are irrelevant to overcoming fear and are omitted. "...The book is amazing. I am so grateful I found it because it speaks to the heart of me. I am taking swim lessons at the local rec center and while they are terrific for what they are, they are exactly as you describe. Without your book and video, I would not have the courage and confidence to speak up and tell the instructors what I need. To their credit, they listen! They help me and I think I am helping them by being the student I've become thanks to your enlightening me."--Gratefully, PW Miracle Swimming School for Adults founder Dash's work recently appeared in The Observer (Sarasota FL), Suncoast View (ABC 7 TV Sarasota), International Business Times, and Sarasota Magazine.
