<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Wellness and travel journalist Annie Daly will take readers way off the beaten path to explore five little-known wellness practices from across the globe. She will travel to Jamaica, Brazil, Japan, India, Norway, and Hawaii to learn why their inhabitants are so much healthier than Americans, and what we can learn from them. And while these traditions may appear to have little in common, at their root is an essential truth: living well isn't a trend--or a competition--and it certainly isn't something you can buy"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>True well-being isnt hard to find.

Whether she's hiking along gorgeous fjords in Norway to see why Norwegians are so dedicated to getting outside, soothing her spirit with Hawaiian salt water cleanses, or learning about the importance Brazilians place on community, Annie combines on-the-ground reporting with heartful personal narrative to share the global lessons, philosophies, and customs that prove that wellness is not about the products--it's about the way you live your life. <p/>With candid photography, lesser-known history sidebars, and guidance on how to incorporate these often ancient and always timeless practices into your own lifestyle, this culturally-immersive read invites you to view the world through a different lens and decide what being well means to you. <p/><i>Destination Wellness</i> is the perfect book for: <p/>- Anyone who has embraced hygge and is looking for new lifestyle inspiration<br>- Armchair travelers and staycationers<br>- Happiness and inspiration seekers<br>- Wellness and travel enthusiasts<br>- History lovers<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Sometimes it takes somebody like Annie going around the world to shed the light for the rest of us." <b>--Zibby Owens, <i>Moms Don't Have Time to Lose Weight</i> podcast</b><br><br>"Like a Blue Zones guide for the body." <b>-<i>Shape</i></b><br><br>"What may sound like a travel writer's cushy, decidedly pre-Covid boondoggle in fact offers up low-cost, deeply rooted customs that reveal how living well is less about exclusive products than intentional, inclusive choices." <b>-<i>The Slowdown</i></b><br><br>"With gorgeous photography throughout, <i>Destination Wellness</i> is as much an armchair travel book as it is a source of inspiration for living a more well-balanced life." <b>-<i>Condé Nast Traveler</i></b><br><br>"In a world where what's common sense is often overlooked in favor of elaborate wellness rituals, it's helpful to have books like <i>Destination Wellness</i> to remind us what really works: connections to community and nature, in a nutshell.
