Start Feeling Better Today
We all feel stressed, worried, or anxious at one time or another. Sometimes our circumstances, and even things that are out of our control, can wreak havoc on our spirits. Changing how we feel often begins with a small thing. Listening to a beautiful song. Enjoying a sunset. Making a happy memory. This unique book helps you discover how to beat stress, ward off worry, and banish the blues.
50 Ways to Feel Great Today offers medically and scientifically sound advice for giving a blah mood the boot. These time-tested ideas are simple and often low or no cost. While no "happy" pill exists, the activities in this book let you become your own helping hand.
Why not give one a try today? You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
"Clear, concise advice for a healthy mind, body, and spirit."—Curtis E. Harris, MS, MD, JD
"This is an extraordinary book that I will be making available to all my friends, family, and patients. It offers a great balance of self-care and giving to others, which together make life worthwhile and fun."—Jo Marturano, MD, psychiatrist
