Synopsis
Wellness rests on three strong pillars--proper nutrition, regular moderate exercise and stress management. As with anything balanced upon three legs, if one of the legs is missing or weak, the whole thing collapses. If you exercise regularly but eat poorly and do nothing to manage your stress, you are setting yourself up for illness. If you eat right but never get up out of your recliner, the same thing will happen. Even if you manage to eat well and exercise four times a week, the good benefits you accrue will not protect you from developing an illness if your life is full of unrelenting stress. The Complete Idiot's Guide® to Wellness teaches readers how to improve overall health and avoid illness by balancing these three pillars. In addition to providing readers with the necessary facts in each of these three areas, this book provides them with the tools necessary to proactively track their own wellness initiatives and identify when its time to get a particular check-up or exam, and under what circumstances to seek medical care.
