Radiant Body, Restful Mind: a Woman's Book of Comfort Shubhra Krishan

What woman hasn?t indulged in a hot bath at the end of a long, tiring work week or wished she had a private aromatherapist around to prepare an evening spa experience or a chef to whip up the perfect indulgent yet calorie-free meal? All of those things – and more – are available in this book. Shubhra Krishan has broken down the elements of a woman?s life and organized simple, inexpensive indulgences for each. The book is divided into sections, including home, cooking, bath, relaxation, bedroom, beauty, relationships, and "retreats." Each section offers tips about how to enliven and enrich each part of life while making sure that you get what you want and need – including indulgences and comfort.
This book acts as a bridge between the experts – the massage therapists, dietitians, meditation teachers, beauty consultants, decorators, and personal shoppers, helping women make the most of the limited time and resources they have. Sections include clearing clutter, expressing yourself through creativity, preparing facials and scrubs, enjoying the natural world, nurturing relationships with friends and spouses, creating "spa days" where a few hours seem like a weekend getaway, planning indulgent evenings for two, and creating personal "sacred" space.
