This guide to physical fitness and well-being for women outlines the holistic or "whole person" approach to health as advocated by The British Slimnastics Association, a member of The Central Council of Physical Recreation. The Association encourages the maintenance of a healthy lifestyle by advocating physical exercise, a healthy diet, lack of alcohol, cigarettes and drugs, and the practice of tension control, which helps to avert the physical and mental effects of stress. The authors aim to incorporate these features in the text, which combines a physical fitness exercise programme with tips on health, diet and general relaxation techniques. They explain how to identify and avoid potentially stressful situations, how to become more aware and self-confident and how to help others work more effectively.
