This review is from: The Fresh Start Promise: 28 Days to Total Mind, Body, Spirit Transformation (Paperback)

This is an unusual but entirely wonderful book, I thought. Edwige is a French woman with a vibrant and sparkling voice and some significantly new approaches to wellness and life change. 'The Fresh Start Promise' takes you day-by-day through a hands-on 28-day life change program using meditations, chi-based exercises and a host of other fascinating but always practical techniques for putting the wheels to life change in motion. Tons of practical wisdom here from a new wellness writer with a joyful, affirmative and absolutely unique voice. Highly recommended!
