Celebrity, author, yoga instructor, and wellness enthusiast Mariel Hemingway offers a 30-day plan for total mind and body health

Rather, the simple steps in this practical program to all-over wellness springs from four fundamental areas of life: food, exercise, silense, and environment. Hemingway, a longtime yoga devotee and one of the leading voices for holistic living, discusses what our bodies and minds need, how to make the best decisions for our daily lives, and why in just 30 days we can all look great, feel great, and find peace of mind. Readers learn:
. How what we eat and drink affects how we feel every day.
. That exercise not only helps us stay in shape, but connects us to ourselves
. How bringing silent reflection into our lives helps us learn to observe, and can positively alter our habits and behaviors.
. Why our homes echo the clutter and chaos of the outside world, and how they can be transformed into havens for the balanced life we seek.

"The way you eat is just as important as what you eat. The act of eating should provide a moment of respite during your day. After all, eating is the most fundamental act of taking care of yourself. While choosing nutritious, whole foods is one aspect of eating well, learning how to treat food with the consideration and respect it deserves—creating a good eating experience, whether alone or with your family—is equally crucial. Only when your attitude toward eating changes can food truly become one of the cornerstones of the balanced life—something that positively affects your life and brings you not just health but also pleasure and peace of mind.”—from Eating with Peace and Moderation
