When you press the action replay button on your life, will it only contain images such as doing the ironing, watching TV and writing emails? Or will it contain something more extraordinary and adventurous such as paddling the Mekong, sailing around the world or skiing to the South Pole? The more we live in our comfort zone, the less we achieve, and the more stuck we will find ourselves in our safe, controlled place. When we live a full life, enriched with adventure, experience and wonder, we feel alive and vibrant. Sometimes the frailty or finality of life's dead-line provokes us to fully live. We don't want to be lying on our deathbeds regretting all the things we haven't done. This book will inspire you to live your life to the full - to seize the day and savour the moment. Life is an adventure, so go explore. We are all so much more amazing than we realise.
There are plenty of things to smile about, as long as you open your eyes to see them! So lift your spirits with this little book of uplifting quotes and delightful ideas to help you look on the bright side of life.
Life is stressful. But it doesn't have to be. It's no wonder you can't calm down: your to-do list is as long as your arm, your bank balance keeps dropping, you feel guilty for not calling your parents more often and there always seems to be a big deadline to meet at work. You need a serious breather-but you can barely find time to shower, let alone to exercise or meditate. In Let That Sh*t Go, Kate Petriw and Nina Purewal share the wisdom they've gained though decades of practising and teaching others to find peace of mind no matter how busy they are. Learn to put your life in perspective, take each day one step at a time and steal moments of calm amid the chaos. And remember: it's not worth holding onto that sh*t.

After Kim's death her daughter Alison continued making the books - and word of mouth turned this into an underground bestseller in America. Today, over two decades later, it brings comfort and inspiration to readers around the world.
