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.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Greenworld Books, Arlington, Texas, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
