**ABC's chief medical correspondent helps you ring in the New Year right
with a resolution that's actually doable: a year-long plan to improve
your emotional and physical health--from giving up alcohol to doing a
digital detox, but each for only one month.
**
Dr. Jennifer Ashton is at the top of her field as an ob-gyn and news
correspondent. But even at the top there's still room to improve, and
with The Self-Care Solution, she upends her life one month at a time,
using her own experiences to help you improve your health and enhance
your life.
Dr. Ashton becomes both researcher and subject as she focuses on twelve
separate challenges. Beginning with a new area of focus each month, she
guides you through the struggles she faces, the benefits she
experiences, and the science behind why each month's challenge--giving
up alcohol, doing more push-ups, adopting an earlier bedtime, limiting
technology--can lead to better health.
Month by month, Dr. Ashton tackles a different area of wellness with the
hope that the lessons she learns and the improved health she experiences
will motivate her (and you) to make each change permanent. Throughout,
she offers easy-to-comprehend health information about the particular
challenge to help you understand its benefits and to stick with it.
Whether it's adding cardio or learning how to meditate, Dr. Ashton makes
these daily lifestyle choices and changes feel possible--and shows how
beneficial a mindful lifestyle can be.
Inspiring, practical, and informative, illustrated with helpful photos
and charts, The Self-Care Solution teaches you how to recalibrate your
life to enjoy a better, healthier year, one month at a time. Featuring
guidance from top experts, entertaining case studies, easy-to-follow
advice and tips, and Dr. Ashton's observations and insights, this book
can help you achieve a better life balance and a more active and healthy
lifestyle.
