Publisher's Synopsis
THE BATH SOLUTION, by Carolyn Bessette M.D., relates a doctor's personal experience with stress and its causes-and how baths can be a quick, easy way to promote relaxation and wellness. Written in a conversational style, this book will be a quick read for busy women who know too well the negative health consequences of stress. Dr. Bessette's message of "Fill your tub-Empty your mind-Find your spirit" will resonate with every woman who seeks a path to relaxation and her true self. In THE BATH SOLUTION, Dr. Bessette discusses how baths can help transform your state of being from unhealthy tension to calm relaxation. Baths are the perfect venue for learning to relax, a skill that can then be carried through the rest of your day. The bath gives you the ability to withdraw from your chaotic surroundings to the meditative peace of inner stillness, and which can have a positive impact on your health on a day-to-day basis, with cumulative benefits as time goes by. Baths are a simple, affordable way to achieve these health benefits without the major commitments of gym memberships and dietary overhauls. In Part 1 of THE BATH SOLUTION, Dr. Bessette speaks to women seeking a quick answer to unhealthy stress levels. In Part 2, she provides self-assessment tools for the reader and in Part 3, Dr. Bessette outlines the science behind how the bath provides its therapeutic benefits, information useful to both the curious individual and the healthcare practitioner interested in using the complementary therapy of the bath in their practices.
