He reveals: How to truly understand allergies (or are they just intolerances); why getting naked may be just what the doctor ordered; why the vacuum should be one of your best friends; the power of oats in the morning; how acupuncture shouldn't be a sticking point; handy herbs and how to use them for relief; the wonderful effects of de-stressing oneself.

The tone of each book is personal and informal; readers will feel as thought they are having a one-to-one with their favourite coach.
