Synopsis

What if wellbeing is not about expensive spas, svelte yoga gear, infinity pools or shamanistic retreats?

What if wellbeing is a skill we can learn and consciously cultivate from the inside, every day, in order to show up to life wholeheartedly?

What if we chose to cultivate a path of wellbeing as a skill - like a ninja - and practiced wellbeing from the inside using our inner wisdom and resources consciously and skilfully?

If we did this, wellbeing may not cost us a cent because we have all we need within us already and can tend to it every day like a garden. What a budget-conscious form of wellbeing that could be!

What might your life look and feel like if you decided to do this?

Wellbeing Ninja Alice MacKinnon invites you to step into this handbook of highly accessible information and practices to nourish your wellbeing from the inside. More than words, this book is filled with QR codes that take you instantly to Alice demonstrating key techniques and facilitating short sessions of mindful movement online so you can cultivate and deepen your own wellbeing practices immediately.
