Stanford Olympic Gold medalist, U18 sports coach, 'metaphysical mechanic' dissecting performance and change. "Heart Sparking Performance" delves into the 5 key constructs shaping how we craft impact for action in the world, consciously.
Jon Root is a 1988 Olympic gold medalist, 1986 World Champion, 2x European All Star in Serie A-1 professional volleyball league. A product of Stanford University, Jon garnered All American honors 3 times while competing a dual degree in Economics and Political Science.
A product of a difficult childhood, Jon ended up leaving home at a young age, carrying baggage that would eventually contribute to a path of deep personal development, elite athletic performance and a new found way of being successful in the world.
His first novel, "Life, The Spiritual Sport" (Dancing Moon Press, 2014) received a 4 star Portland Book review. This novel, his 2nd, expands from where the first book closed.
30 years blended experience, Sports and Spiritual practitioner, have created a different look at how we integrate consciousness practices leading to peak performance. Jon is also the creator of "Sports Kitchen (TM)" (Where Fitness, Health and Wellness collide) currently being pitched to TV/Digital platforms.
Jon's love of travel, exploring sacred traditions across different cultures has created a very unique development pedigree. Buddhist, Sufi, Hindu, Native American purification rituals, Sweat Lodge, Vision Quests, working with mediums, channels, healers. Sacrifice in Service is something the author describes as saving himself from himself.
Continuously pushing his precepts into the young adult mind around sports performance, conscious living, Jon serves as Technical Director/Head Coach 17's for Encore Volleyball and Lemo Foundation in Redwood City. He is an advisor to those passionate about Sports, Energy and Consciousness.

Across 2 'circles' of consciousness, Physical body and Emotional, I discuss variations of Pain, how we respond and register. Termed Reminder Pain and Portal Pain, the discussion addresses emotional pain as a portal to higher teachings, self awareness leading to greater understanding of negative energy embedded in an emotional reaction.
On Jan 17th, 2019, Stanford Neuroscience research published results stating they have identified 2 different areas of the brain, one responsible for registering physical pain, one responsible for how we register/process emotional pain.
Physical pain is a reminder something is out of balance, needing healing or release. Emotional pain isn't as straightforward, but can serve as a teacher by exploring the proverbial question of 'why do I feel this way'? Hidden emotional files in our psyche need scrubbing, thus supporting the positive mindset necessary for impact performances.
Stay tuned for another update.
Thank you all for supporting this vision.
