Wellness on the Weekly by Adrianne Lind is a short but insightful piece that aims to guide its reader through fifty-two weeks of wellness activities for a more holistic well-being. The scope of this book is to help its readers understand their physical, emotional, and mental well-being in the best possible way through interesting activities, easy prompts, and stress-relieving activities. From yoga to meditations, stretches, breath work, and even journaling, this book packs it all and has the potential to upgrade our lifestyle for the better while reducing our dependence on conventional medicine for every lifestyle issue.

Reading this book triggered a lot of positive change in me, and as someone who struggles with sleep, the 4-7-8 breathing technique proved effective for me, and I'm grateful for that. Adrianne describes these weekly guides in a playful and considerate manner, highlighting that perfection is not the aim of the exercises given in this book, but rather the sense of fulfilment and calm that follows is important. For every exercise, there is a link to a video attached to help the reader understand the chapter better. The quotes at the end of the chapters are also encouraging. The highlight from this book for me was the pictures; they were intentionally drawn, and I loved to see them at the beginning of each chapter.

The only dislike I had was that I wished the book had more details; however, this is subjective, and it can be seen as suitable enough by another person. This is the kind of writing that impacts its audience and gets them more aware of their overall well-being. I did not come across any errors while reading, showing that this book was perfectly edited. Wellness on the Weekly by Adrianne Lind receives 5 out of 5 stars from me for the clear message it conveys and the interestingly unique way it is delivered. I recommend this book to audiences who love books that discuss health, yoga, and general body well-being.

The wellness activities and the 4-7-8 breathing technique sound like they’d be really helpful, especially with the way it helped you. I like that the book’s not too focused on perfection and instead highlights fulfillment and calm. I’m not sure I’d pick it up, but I do appreciate how it has made a positive impact for you.

I have not read it, but I engaged with a small sample and downloaded the book. The reviewer seemed to outline the sequence well for daily activities, suggestions, and positive quotations. When taken, it is a great path toward positive actions. "Wellness on the Weekly" seems a quick and easy read. Thank you.

Wellbeing is important and a book that collects useful tips bring value to the table. I especially like that the book focuses on an approach takes takes away from traditional medicine - in my opinion indeed lots can be achieved by proper breathing, eating, sleeping, moving etc and keep the medicine for when it is absolutely needed. I look forward to discovering the 52 weeks of wellness activities.

Having copd, I learned that the 4-7-8 breathing is very helpful. I have a tendency not to breathe fully as I need to. This being one of the exercises, I am excited to read more on the book. It is good that the book is edited properly, I get distracted with that at times. Congrats on the BOTD.

It’s nice to have a book that contains everything a person needs; what to eat, how to exercise, how to breathe, and all written personably with some soothing illustrations and short, easy to read sections. Thank you reviewer for summarising it all.

Too often, we're so busy that we accumulate stress while not taking proper care of our wellness. Taking the time to read this book is already a step forward in improving our situation, and then following the various guides can really help our physical, mental, and emotional health. Thank you for your great review!

52 'fun-wellness' activities create a welcoming tone for the book. I meditate and regularly practice box breathing and yoga, too. Therefore, I am interested in learning how this book can help me refine my practice. I already love the images at the beginning of the chapters. Thank you for your comprehensive and honest review!
