Radiant Body, Restful Mind

Self care is more than stress relief. It's more than exercising and eating nutritious foods. It's about enjoying life, stealing moments for yourself, and doing those little things that make even the most challenging day seem a little brighter. The author of Radiant Body, Restful Mind understands. Like you and me, she is busy. She doesn't have time to take spa days or meditate for hours each day. Instead, she has learned how to make the most of what she has. In Radiant Body, Restful Mind, the author shares her secrets. She includes ways to relieve stress on the job, to enjoy the moment, or to take care of small tasks during down time. She also provides realistic hints on easy substitutions to help you eat just a little healthier.

An Absolute Must-Own

Read the beautiful introduction, and I challenge you to resist picking up this gem of a book. Lovely, exhilerating ideas on how to harness almost everything around you--friends, kids, flowers, fragrances, oils, herbs, music, sunsets and silences to heal and nurture yourself. The best part about the book is its sheer simplicity, which a woman like me, pressed for time and sapped of energy, wants from a book of 'comfort tips'. The pages where real women across different professions and age-groups have put down their thoughts and ideas on self-nurture are wonderful. I could relate to each one of these women--from the one who finds therapy in cooking, to the one who gives her skin the occasional treat with cold milk! You absolutely must own a copy of this book, and gift it to as many friends as you can!

A beautifully warm book

Every woman (and man) should own a copy of this book. Refreshing and new tips on balancing our hectic, stressful lives by doing small things to rejuvenate our mind, body and surroundings inexpensively.

Refreshing, and very helpful

When I read the name on the cover, I thought this was yet another book of been-there-tried-that tips. But as I read through the pages, I discovered that it has some very valuable, easy-to-use ideas on how to improve the way I eat, look after my home, relate to people, work and relax. To my mind, this is not a book that can change my life overnight, but it can certainly change the way I live, bit by bit, or should I say, tip by tip! The information contained in the book is golden, and the writer's easy style is a bonus. I recommend it highly.
