About this listen
If you are tired of gaining back the weight you just lost…then keep reading....
I have struggled with weight loss (and keeping it off) most of my adult life. I know that I am not the only one because The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition says, “80 to 95 percent of dieters gain back the weight they’ve worked so hard to lose.”
With so many people struggling to lose weight and keep it off, what is the secret to losing weight and keeping it off for good? That is what Hike Your Way to Better Health and Happiness will show you.
What you will discover inside is:
- Three simple steps that anyone could do
- You don’t need a “don’t ever eat again list”
- How to dream again, and the difference it makes
- The simple pleasures of a walk
- The world is full of limitless possibilities if you will just open your eyes and ears
- And finally, you can know what it is like to have the world at your fingertips
Following the three simple steps in this book, I went from being a couch potato to hiking almost 19 miles to the bottom of the Grand Canyon, and back out one day. I have tried them all and failed them all, just like you, but the information in this book is altogether different from the rest!
If you’re ready to do something with lasting results, scroll back up and buy now!

Divorce is a lot like losing someone. It is the death of a marriage. It is a sheer and brutal act of abandonment. It is extremely personal. Even after the meanest separation or divorce that caught you off guard, you may achieve this level of self-acceptance and forgiveness. This doesn’t mean you deny what they did to you or run away from the pain. Instead, you allow yourself to experience it all—the guilt, shame, anger, and disappointment—and move through it. If that’s how you’re feeling right now, this book is for you.

According to Mencap, there are approximately 351,000 children in the UK with a learning disability.

Our future selves are obstinate in repeating the same errors every single time. In this book, I will describe elements in ourselves that contribute to what I call the “stupidity factor” of our future selves. I will present tips and techniques that you can use for taming that incorrigible future self to be less…stupid. Because when you realize your future self is still you, you will most likely behave the same way your present self behaves in the future. That’s an advantage because the future self will never magically change or surprise you with new behaviors. That’s a fact!

Many parents dread talking to their kids about money in fear of opening pandora’s box. But firstly, that box is probably already open; you will be surprised at what kids soak up from their friends, what they see on TV and on social media, and what they hear you talking about at home. And secondly, if it isn’t already, it likely will be soon, and this will be out of your control. It may be better if we actually open this box from time to time anyway. Not talking to your kids about money can actually make them think that money is something to fear.

What do you think when you hear the word "taxes"? Odds are, you don't associate them with anything good. In fact, it's been said that the only two things that are certain in life are death and taxes - and nobody looks forward to either of them. As an entrepreneur, you know the value you bring to the table. You help create jobs, provide services, and give back with your time and effort. The truth is, by changing the way you approach your taxes, you can transform the way they impact your life.

It sucks to acknowledge that you are what’s keeping you from the life you want. You sacrifice what you want most for what you want in the moment. You know everything you’re supposed to do, and yet you feel stuck - limited by your past, overwhelmed by your future - in a purgatory of your own behavior.

As he did so masterfully in his New York Times best seller The Gatekeepers, Jacques Steinberg creates a compelling portrait of people obsessed with reaching a life-defining goal. In this instance, the target is an Ironman triathlon---a 2.4-mile open-water swim followed by a 112-mile bike ride, then finally a 26-mile marathon run, all of which must be completed in no more than seventeen hours. Steinberg focuses not on the professional who live off the prize money and sponsorships, but on a handful of triathletes who regard the sport as a hobby.

Felt like I was on the Journey
Patrick Tranhey narrated a great story on the Hike Your Way to Better Health and Happiness. Mik's view on the journey was a great look at a way of losing weight. It is easy to say to just walk but Mik put a different twist and brought you into his journey into the Grand Canon. I enjoyed listening and make me put this journey on my bucket list of things to do!

This audiobook helped me get the motivation to get off my butt and get active. I fell into a lazy habit of taking naps throughout the day because I work from home. I struggled with getting the energy to go workout so I just made excuses. Thank you for helping me turn things around! Highly recommend!

Hiking for Health, sign me up!
i have learned that diets that have many restrictions, especially from the get go, are inevitably recipes for failure. Ive tried many diets and workouts that just didn't work and ultimately left me feeling worse because i felt like a failure. I used to walk everyday some years back, and i really enjoyed doing it, for quiet time in my mind as well as using my body in a gentle way. Listening to this book has given me a new mindset about how beneficial a simple or intense walk can be. Doing something i love and gaining health while i do it is like Christmas morning! The narration is easy to listen to and well read!
