Fifty Simple Steps to Lifelong Health

Everyday Wellness

Everyday Wellness is a small, easy-to-read book about living a healthier, happier, and more peaceful life. The book includes five sections—Nourish, Energize, Purify, Simplify, and Renew—each of which contains ten simple tips. But don’t be fooled by the simplicity of Everyday Wellness; there are enough ideas here to make a big difference in your quality of life.

In the introduction, Marilyn Beidler writes that she “chose the title Everyday Wellness deliberately.” Wellness is more than the absence of disease—it is a positive state of optimal functioning:

In medicine, physicians still perform the necessary work of patching bones and curing infections. Today, however, many of us seek not only a longer lifespan, but also a longer “healthspan”—the length of time that one enjoys excellent health….The adjective everyday reminds us that achieving wellness is a lifelong effort. How we feel on our fortieth (or our eightieth) birthday is the result of thousands of decisions, few of which seem significant at the time.

Everyday Wellness includes a foreword by Timothy Dooley, M.D., N.D., author of Homeopathy: Beyond Flat Earth Medicine.
