For many people, health is just something taken for granted other than the odd cold or childhood illness; until they are unfortunate enough to contract something more major that pulls them up short and forces them to reassess their lifestyle.

On the other hand, there are those who suffer from one cold after another, or who pick up any bug that's 'doing the rounds' and seem to be constantly moaning about their health.

Then there are those who just never seem to get ill at all. How are they different?

Taking care of one's health is about releasing negative thinking, understanding what triggers your stress and learning how to reduce it, helping your immune system work at its best, ensuring you get enough exercise (not necessarily at a gym!) and understanding how to get the best from what you eat.

Why beat yourself up with "should" and "mustn't" when you can change the way you speak to yourself and become your body's best friend.

A lot can be attributed to a positive attitude and the mind & body connection; for what the mind believes, the body will do it's best to achieve.

Sarah Knighton & Olive Hickmott have taken this premise one step further and written a book called You too can ‘do’ Health! which is launched to coincide with International Be Healthy Day on 29th October 2007; You too can 'do' health, is an easy read, telling the story of one person's journey of self development and self awareness in their attainment of the health they want and deserve.

If you are ready to take responsibility for your health, then this is a really good book to start with and a great Christmas present for your nearest and dearest!
