All is Well

When journalist Marilynn Preston started her fitness column in Chicago in 1976, most people thought yoga and yogurt were interchangeable terms. Everything changes. We live in a healthy lifestyle world now, and in Marilynn’s new book, All is Well: The Art {and Science} of Personal Well-Being, she offers readers a timely and provocative guide to living your best life—healthy and happy, juicy and engaged, alert to corporate predators and health hucksters of every stripe.

The chapters are short and savvy, lively and opinionated:

* Link Mind and Body. * Explore Endlessly. * Tweet Mindfully. * Make Your Getaway. * Practice De-Aging. * Grow Your Gray Matter. * Be Your Own Uncle Sam. *

From eating clean to going green, from losing weight to adding muscle, from living longer to dying more easily, Marilynn links body and mind to culture and politics. She has great empathy for readers who have tried and failed to realize their personal vision of well-being, but she knows you can always begin, again, and be successful. Sometimes you have to redefine success. And that’s good, too.

In her long-running weekly syndicated column Energy Express, and now in her third book, All is Well, Marilynn offers readers a welcoming evidence-based path to more joy, greater health, and sustained happiness—three essentials of a healthy lifestyle.

Three more, she writes, are crispy fries, good wine, and love, love, love.
