Outstanding!
This is an amazing book. Lots of women that I know (myself included) have trouble taking time for themselves, yet they put in incredible amounts of time helping their female friends. This book helps you deal with that problem. I was also lucky enough to hear Alice Domar when she was on National Public Radio a few weeks ago. I found the interview fascinating. Dr. Domar talked about how you need to take time for yourself; so many of us feel guilty when we give ourselves time to relax. She has helped me realize that doing nice things for yourself is something that women need to do more of, and that we shouldn't feel guilty for doing it. I HIGHLY recommend this book to any woman.

Extremely Helpful
It's so easy for women to forget to take care of themselves. This book shows that it is in the best interest of their health and well-being, and that of their families, too, to take care of themselves. This book is a great follow-up to Domar's previous book, Healing Mind Healthy Woman. Women owe it to themselves to learn more about self-care. It's making a huge difference in my life.

wondering
I'm wondering why when I submitted a negative review, it didnt show up on this web site. I took Ms. Domar's class (yes, she did invent yoga), and found it bordering on absurd. To lead women with serious medical problems to believe they can "relax" and then they'll get pregnant - she claims that's not what she says, but that's exactly the interpretation of her work she encourages. So if I submit the truth in a review, but with 5 stars, will amazon add it to the web site? Similar Products
