_________________ THE TOP TEN BESTSELLER 'Unusually practical, non-patronising and authentic. Think Marie Kondo for the mind' Sunday Times Wellness pioneers Nadia Narain and Katia Narain Phillips have spent decades helping others to feel their best. But it took them a bit longer to learn to care for themselves. Here they share the small, achievable steps they picked up on a lifetime’s journey towards self-care, and how you can apply them to your life, wherever you are. Right now, you may be deep in the waves of life, being tossed around. Learning self-care is like building your own life boat, plank by plank. Once you’ve got your boat, you’ll still be rocked by the same waves, but you’ll have a feeling of safety, and a stability that means you can pick other people up on your way.

This beautifully photographed book is a collection of twenty-two refreshing recipes shared by award-winning spas from around the world. Creating healthy, delicious, vitamin-infused water is simple, inexpensive and eco-friendly. Author Pam Wenzel was inspired to write Spa Water recognizing that we live in a more health-conscious society, where people have become increasingly aware of the many benefits associated with proper hydration. A seventeen-year breast cancer survivor, Pam discovered a number of correlations between dehydration and health while doing research for the book. She found dehydration could be a major contributing factor—not only to a higher cancer risk, but for digestive problems, back and joint pain, obesity, overall poor health and disease. This collection of mouth-watering and healthful recipes is designed to refresh body and soul.
