Be Your Own Commander In Chief Volume 1: Body

By Yuri Kruman

Learn how to really listen to—and cultivate—your body’s health without a special budget or training, letting you enter and maintain a higher cognitive state regularly and do your life’s best work.

In our age of chaos, inattention, truthiness and failed leadership, it’s time for all of us to step out of the shadows and become our own Commander in Chief. Any one of us can use timeless wisdom and focus to exercise control over ourselves and our future, as long as we don’t seek magic pills or quick fixes.

In this powerful book, Yuri Kruman combines frontline war stories with humorous misadventures to explore the four essential conversations we should all be having to build our best possible life. This comprehensive playbook will help you navigate body (health, nutrition and fitness), mind (mental models and life skills), dealing with others and conversing with G-d/the Universe.

Unflinching with candor yet relentlessly actionable, this optimistic book is a profound field guide for how to live and future-proof an enriching and purposeful life.
