Reduce Stress and Feel Better Than Ever
Susan Smith Jones was kind enough to talk with us about how to incorporate healthy living to enjoy a better career. Her website, www.susansmithjones.com contains tons of free information on how to enjoy a healthy lifestyle, look 10 years younger, and feel the best you have felt in years. About Susan Smith Jones For a woman with three of America’s most ordinary names, Dr. Susan Smith Jones has certainly made extraordinary contributions in the fields of optimum health, fitness, and human potential. She not only teaches how to live a healthy, balanced life, she lives it! Selected as one of ten “Healthy American Fitness Leaders” by the President’s Council on Physical Fitness & Sports (Previous winners include Lance Armstrong, the late President Ronald Reagan, former UCLA Basketball Coach John Wooden, Kathy Smith, Denise Austin, Richard Simmons, and Jack LaLanne.) Susan has authored over 20 books, including Be Healthy~Stay Balanced: 21 Simple Choices to Create More Joy & Less Stress, Choose to Live Peacefully, Wired to Meditate, Vegetable Soup & The Fruit Bowl, Health Bliss, The Healing Power of NatureFoods, and her celebrated 4-color recipe book titled Recipes for Healthful Bliss, which includes over 150 color photographs of her recipes and resplendent foods. She holds a B.A. in Psychology, an M.S. in Exercise Physiology, and a Ph.D. in Health Sciences. For over 30 years, Susan taught students, staff and faculty at UCLA how to be healthy and fit.
Susan certainly walks her talk. She has written more than 500 magazine articles, with her picture on several covers, and appears regularly on radio and television talk shows around the country. Her inspiring message and innovative techniques for achieving total health in body, mind, and spirit have won her a grateful and enthusiastic following and have put her in constant demand internationally as a health and fitness consultant and motivational speaker (lectures, workshops, and keynote presentations) for community, corporate, and church groups. She is also founder and president of Health Unlimited, a Los Angeles-based consulting firm dedicated to the advancement of peaceful, balanced living and health education.
Many years ago, when a devastating car accident fractured Susan’s back so badly that doctors told her she would never again be physically active and would live a life of chronic pain, she proved her doctors wrong. Her miraculous recovery proved to her that we all have within ourselves everything we need to live our lives to the fullest. She now regularly participates in a variety of fitness activities including hiking, weight training, in-line skating, biking, horseback riding, pilates, and yoga.
