Today is the first day of the rest of your life.

Women today face a dilemma. How do we juggle our busy, demanding lives and never-ending to-do lists, with the essential need for self-care? We’re overwhelmed, frustrated, exhausted, and either ignoring or oblivious to the signs of burnout. It’s time for change.

In this personal yet comprehensive handbook, two of Australia’s leading voices in women’s health and wellness, integrative medicine specialist Dr Karen Coates and renowned wellness advocate Sharon Kolkka, will help you find your way back to optimal physical, mental, and emotional health.

From helping you recognise and understand your current state of wellbeing – by giving you the insight to discern whether you’re thriving, surviving, or depleted – Dr Karen and Sharon will guide you, step by step, through their innovative five-pillared approach to wellness and a personal health audit to empower you along your path to better energy, vitality, and stress resilience.

Their advice goes beyond what you’ve heard in a regular doctor’s office. How to Be Well uncovers integrative solutions that will resonate with your unique lifestyle and motivate the short-term and long-term changes you can make to maximise wellbeing.

If you are looking to maintain your health, vitality and age gracefully, this book is for you.

If you are overtired, overstretched, and over it, stressed, exhausted or feel like your life is lacking in joy, this book is for you.

No matter which stage of life you are at, How to Be Well contains the information you need to take charge of your health and wellness. It’s for all women who want to be more resilient and live a full, vital life. Every woman deserves to be well.
