Our ancestors adhered to the daily, seasonal, and yearly rhythms of nature by necessity, but modern life overrides these cycles, compromising women’s health and happiness. In this book, Sara Avant Stover shows how simple, natural, and refreshingly accessible practices can minimize stress and put us back in sync with our own cycles and those of nature. When we honor spring’s seedlings, summer’s vibrancy, fall’s harvest, and winter’s quietude, we harmonize our inner and outer worlds. Sara’s recommendations nurture the body, invigorate the mind, and lift the spirit. Illustrated yin and yang yoga sequences, one-day season-specific retreats, enticing recipes, and innovative self-reflection techniques make it easy to reconnect with the essential.
REVIEW FROM CONVERSATIONS BOOK CLUB
When it comes to books like Sara Avant Stover's The Way, I always look for a way that I can apply its message to the audiences I reach in print and on radio. In this case, though, it's not hard at all.
Stover has written a book based on her own experiences that allows for women and even men to look at the path she is outlining and seeing a way that they can use the same principles in their lives as well. I think most of us would say that we want to be Happy. Sara shows that this is more than just saying that's what we desire. We have some work to do in order to make it happy. Some of it is physical while other parts are emotional and even spiritual. I think at the end of the day the main thing is that we have to do everything in our power in order to have the life that we say we want.
Written with care and the well-being of the reader in mind, THE WAY OF THE HAPPY WOMAN is just that for women AND men.
