Description
Practical health and wellness strategies from Lauren Imparato, author of the I.AM.YOU. way of life brand and yoga studio
Rest to rage. Meditate to work. Cleanse to get dirty.
Enough preaching about self-deprivation. No more striving for bodily purity. Who has the patience—or the time!—for strict dietary restrictions and hours of meditation? Let’s get real. These tactics just don’t work—no less than not for long. But that doesn’t mean health and happiness are unobtainable.
Most ceaselessly you just need an anxiety buster you’ll do at the same time as running down the street. Or a yoga pose you’ll do at your desk. Or a way to debloat what feels like an alien baby in your abdomen. Retox isn’t about changing who you are or denying life’s pleasures. It’s about tailoring sensible, scientifically-based health practices to the life you already live. It’s about working hard, playing harder, and renewing your balance and energy so you’ll do it all again.
In Retox, health expert Lauren Imparato strips yoga down to its anatomical principles, offering practical tips for fast relief. Then, drawing from quite a few disciplines—from psychology to nutrition to Tibetan philosophy—she designs no-nonsense strategies and delicious recipes to combat the commonest challenges of up to date life:
• Stress and anxiety
• Low energy
• Back pain and headaches
• Hangovers
• PMS
• Sleep Deprivation
• And a lot more…
