How (Not) to Do It All and Energise Your Life by Emma Short

ohcorrica's review

4.0

If you’re anything like me, you’re running on fumes. You think that the more you do the better your life is. This book helps you break that cycle. It helps you see what you should be doing and what you can be doing. You don’t need an hour spin class every morning, there are more practical ways to be active in your daily life.

The author helps you reframe your thoughts and practices to get the most out of life while also being reasonable in expectations, time, and the need for rest.

*I received an advance copy of this book in exchange for my review. All opinions are my own and reflect my beliefs.

informative fast-paced

This is a concise and clear overview of a lot of the things every knows they should do for their health, but don't always prioritize. It was full of solid, practical suggestions for the basics.

While I think it could be helpful to the right person as a quick reference, but for anyone who already knows a lot about their own body or health, this may not be what their looking for. I found it a little too focused on a single right path to health; although, it did allow that not everyone can do everything.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
