I did not finish this book because it seemed to have a lot of repetitive ideas from other similar books I have read. I did, however, appreciate Caroline's lighthearted writing style.

A Simply Healthy Life by Caroline Fausel is my new manual for a healthy way of living. I love how it is divided into four parts to include 1) Health and Wellness, 2) Environment, 3) Connection and 4) Faith. Each section provides actionable steps to take for a healthy life. At the end of each chapter there are suggestions provided for actions to take based on whether you are a beginner, intermediate, or advanced. There are also discussion quesitons at the end of the book that align with the topics covered in each chapter. This is a comprehensive book on making positive life changes.

I loved that I could jump to any one chapter I was interested in learning more about, and find tasks I could do immediately to improve my life. Right now, I am working on a beginner goal of drinking 8 glasses of water a day. I found that this would be a good step for me and Fausel provides suggestions of how to go about achieving this goal. I anticipate this will be a book I will return to often. I look forward to using her steps to improve my quality of life.

What really caught my eye was the cover of this book so that first drew me in! I'm also interested in books about wellness and hacks that help live a more balanced life. Overall, the content covered things like family life, getting good sleep, exercise, etc., which I liked. I didn't realize that it is heavy on the Christian content and bible quotes. It's for a very specific audience and so keep that in mind if recommending to others.
