Produktbeschreibung

Whole: A Pocket Guide to Finding Happiness in ALL Aspects of Your Life! encompasses exactly what I believe the author sets out to give you. An introspective, inspirational exploration and comprehensive guide to being a healthier, happier person. Whole: A Pocket Guide to Finding Happiness in ALL Aspects of Your Life! by Kate Nguyen incorporates everything from mindfulness to financial planning to chronic conditions to eating local organic foods in a helpful and never preachy way. Kate Nguyen is real and thought provoking, she speaks from the heart, draws you in, takes you on her journey and gives you the steps to start, restart, or continue a journey of your own. Nguyen lays out a straightforward strategy for attaining a more mindful, healthier life. Each chapter focuses on a different aspect of a holistic approach to happiness. The guide clearly states the author was once on a less mindful path herself, and it effectively uses her journey to a more enlightened state as an example throughout the text. This helps make the guide relatable and compassionate. The chapters are well organized, making it easy to go back and refer to specific concepts, which make for a quick read. The language is simple and has a good rhythm without venturing into the trap of becoming either simplistic or esoteric. However, the book does a good job of making suggestions of how to slowly and systematically incorporate the ideas so change happens gradually and is sustainable. A perfect guide for those who truly seek health and happiness, it is a practical guide which brought on a gamut of emotions for me-tears, smiles, laughter, ah ha moments, and I even caught myself doing the 478 deep breathing while reading it. It is a thoughtful guide about taking responsibility for one's own life and particularly for one's own health and happiness. Nguyen offers the story of her own healing journey and discusses how she became empowered. Each honest story ends with the hope things can improve and it is really possible to change one's life for the better. The chapters are short and easy to digest. However, the simplicity and brevity make the book easy to rush through. It would be best to pause, think deeply, and truly accept each concept. There are numerous concrete examples to move quickly from theory to practice. The reader who diligently follows the path on their own journey will likely be taking a very wise step in the right direction. Read. Appreciate. Apply. Rebecca King, RN, MSN, MPH, MBA, PhD
