Are you stressed? Who isn?t stressed these days? If you (or someone you know) is battling the stresses of daily life, Sustainable Wellness: An Integrative Approach to Transform Your Mind, Body, and Spirit?may provide the handy plan. Dr. Andrew Weil wrote the preface because he also practices integrative medicine. Dr. Matt Mumber and Heather Reed, a yoga instructor, take time in the beginning section to start building a basic knowledge for the reader. Mumber and Reed stress that a sustainable, integrative approach ?should be practical and should fit into everyday situations.? The authors meld together a balanced way?like the image of a three-legged stool of health?for someone looking to make lifestyle changes.
Mumber and Reed depict a program with eight steps to finding lasting health: mindfulness, know thyself, life review and planning, nutrition, physical activity, stress management, spirituality then bringing them all together. Throughout the steps, there are ?Yoga Bits? for the reader, which is useful for taking breaks and starting slowly in this lifestyle shift. Frequent examples and self-administered quizzes also help the reader through. This is a strong book to check out if interested in a less stressful and more balanced life.
