Harness your spring fever, banish the winter blues, and feel healthy and beautiful year-round!

If observed properly, the seasonal cycles of the natural world offer tremendous power for enhancing our physical and spiritual well-being. Acclaimed spa owner Peggy Borgman knows that by bringing ourselves into sync with these ancient rhythms through simple health and beauty rituals, we can look and feel stronger, healthier, more relaxed, and more radiant than ever before. In Four Seasons of Inner and Outer Beauty, Borgman expands on the innovative treatments offered at her award-winning Preston Wynne spa and presents a wonderful collection of seasonal rejuvenating recipes and rituals that anyone can use to indulge in spa-type pampering, alleviate the pressures of daily life, restore body-mind balance, and regain optimum energy and vitality. Each seasonal regimen incorporates a variety of European spa techniques and Eastern wellness practices including meditations, self-massage, botanical beauty treatments, aroma therapy, journal writing, and healing foods. You will:


Reawaken your body in Spring with a detoxifying seawater bath
Prepare for swimsuit season with body-contouring self-massage
Celebrate the Summer sun with an early-morning, outdoor yoga ritual
Ease typical Autumn back-to-school anxiety with a make-at-home, full-body mud treatment
Simulate restorative Winter hibernation with sleep-enhancing aromatherapy and a dream journal


Filled with an appealing array of luxurious, soothing, and energizing prescriptions, Four Seasons of Inner and Outer Beauty is the perfect handbook for nurturing yourself every day and cultivating inner and outer beauty throughout the year.

5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible Resource, August 29, 2000
This review is from: Four Seasons of Inner and Outer Beauty: Rituals and Recipes for Wellbeing Throughout the Year (Paperback)
This book is filled with information about health, beauty and making the most of our surroundings. Ms. Borgman's book teaches and reminds the reader of the importance of acknowledging seasons, emotions and ritual in our increasingly fast-paced lives. She addresses the fly by night, disposable attitude of modern life and the empty feeling with which we're left. The book fuses eastern methodologies with western life and encourages readers to create peace and embrace the change of the natural world. I highly recommend this book, for holisitic health remedies, spa treatments you can create in your home, and help getting a grasp on the things in life that matter.
