Winning is about more than being the fastest or the strongest. It is about understanding yourself, overcoming your fears, and learning from both successes and setbacks. Behind every achievement lies a mental journey that is at least as important as the physical effort - a journey where self-awareness and reflection are the keys to long-term success.<br/><br/> In The Path to Victory - An Athletes Inner Journey, you are invited to explore the big questions every athlete faces at some point. What does it mean to succeed? Is it the result that defines success, or is there something more? How can we build sustainable confidence that does not waver in the face of adversity? And how do we find balance in a world filled with pressure, demands, and expectations?<br/><br/> The book reflects on the mental dimensions of sports and the paradoxes every athlete encounters. It is not about providing ready-made answers but about posing the questions that make you think, question, and grow. These are the questions that help you understand who you are as an athlete and how you can take the next step in your career.<br/><br/> Through thought-provoking chapters, deep insights, and inspiring reasoning, The Path to Victory guides you toward a deeper understanding of your own journey. The book explores themes such as confidence, balancing performance and well-being, handling pressure, and daring to fail - all with the aim of helping you grow both on and off the field.<br/><br/> This is not a manual of techniques or exercises. It is a guide to self-reflection and mental breakthroughs. A book that helps you discover that the greatest successes often come from within. By offering questions rather than answers, it opens doors to new perspectives and shows that the path to victory is not just about winning competitions but about becoming the best version of yourself as an athlete.

Slow Skiing is a book about the love of snow nominated to the Swedish Publishing Price in 2021. Meet Frida Hansdotter, The Bunch through Magnus Granér and Alex Hackel, Evelina Nilsson, Andreas Jonsson, Martin Alzén, Per Strömberg and Mårten Johansson in personal interviews about their views on life and skiing. Magnificent pictures and reflective texts wake the urge to feel skis beneath your feet and experience a landscape shrouded in white. Cissi and Mats Erwald write from the heart about presence, self-reflection and being brave enough to change. SLOW SKIING - A book about presence and awareness In this 152-page coffee table book, the authors present a ten-point manifesto that is described in more detail in the book's three chapters. Each chapter contains interviews with different ski profiles, stories from the authors' own experiences and inviting pictures of ski and adventure photographers, such as Alric Ljunghager and Zoya Lynch. The book is written based on the authors' love of skiing and is about reflecting and taking advantage of both winter and life at a slower pace. The authors changed their lives a few years ago to be able to be ski bums every season. With their thoughts and selected images, they arouse the desire to have skis under your feet and to experience the grandeur of a nature embedded in white. IT STARTED IN A CHAIRLIFT - I sat in a chairlift last year and experienced that everyone below was so stressed. The feeling led to many discussions about stress, presence and performance. During the conversations, we understood our need to embrace skiing in a different way. A way where the focus is on presence and awareness to get a greater experience. That was when the idea for the book Slow Skiing was born, says Cissi Erwald. WITH LIMITED RESOURCES - We have run the entire bookproject based on our passion and we publish it in our own company. Together we have taken care of everything from a simple text file to a finished book with an important message. This is the first book we write, but maybe not the last, says Mats Erwald. SAID ABOUT THE BOOK SLOW SKIING - With Slow Skiing, Mats and Cissi have succeeded in describing the love of skiing, consideration for the environment and the climate, and the pleasure of savouring the local culture and cuisine, says Erik Huss, CEO Husstainability, glaciologist, climate expert and scientific advisor in Protect Our Winters. ABOUT THE AUTHORS Cissi and Mats Erwald, designer and corporate consultant respectively, work in the joint company Erwald Group AB. In recent years, they have spent at least one month per season as ski bums in the Alps.
