KIMIKO Walks New York

Wednesday, September 9th, 2009

IMPORTANT UPDATE: Saturday’s event at Books Kinokuniya will take place at 2:00pm instead of 1:00pm as previously scheduled.

With Fashion Week upon us, the eyes of the world will focus on the many men and women who will grace the runways of the dozens of events hosted by New York’s trend-setting studios.  But how do these people walk with such power and confidence? It’s mental!

Surrounded by stress and a deteriorating figure, KIMIKO decided she would turn her life around and took steps towards rejuvenating her mind and body through a simple feat that she performed countless times a day: walking. Before long, KIMIKO was moving in a direction towards international wellness acclaim. Eventually she would strut her way to a point where she was sharing her techniques to feel younger and look stronger to thousands of Posture Walkers around the globe.

This weekend join entrepreneur and everywoman KIMIKO as she will be signing her new book Walking Your Way to a Better Life and demonstrating the teachings from its pages. With KIMIKO as your guide, there’s no telling how far your two legs will take you, as you improve your life, one step at a time.  Walk it, baby!!

Unlocking the Mysteries of Body and Mind

Tuesday, August 18th, 2009

In Vertical’s quest to deliver the best published content Japan has to offer, we unearthed two distictively original titles destined to push the limits of the body and mind.

A decade ago KIMIKO was your average housewife… then she turned her positivity switch on! By harnessing the power of posture walking KIMIKO instantly changed her physical and mental attitude. Suddenly she was slimmer, stronger, and more confident. Soon she would use her newfound self to take on the world one step at a time as an international wellness guru. By reading Walking Your Way to a Better Life, you will be taking your first step on the journey to a better, brighter, and stronger future.

In The Summer of the Ubume, the mind may be life’s only true terror. Bibliophile and part-time Shinto priest Akihiko Chuzenji may be the only man who can clearly see why the supernatural is only as “real” as we believe it to be. To this man, who balances on the line between logic and faith, it is emotion, ignorance, and doubt which are much more frightening than the ghouls or hell-spawn that may haunt us from the darkness. So, it is his job to bring forth the truth, if he is to rid a broken family of their demons.

With summer soon coming to an end, many readers are refreshed, revitalized, and ready to turn a new page in their lives. Vertical’s new books should be your first two steps to unleashing your full reading potential! Buy your copies and experience a new way of reading today!
