Resumen del Editor

ABC’s chief medical correspondent helps you ring in the New Year right with a resolution that’s actually doable: a year-long plan to improve your emotional and physical health - from giving up alcohol to doing a digital detox, but each for only one month.

Dr. Jennifer Ashton is at the top of her field as an ob-gyn and news correspondent. But even at the top there’s still room to improve, and with The Self-Care Solution, she upends her life one month at a time, using her own experiences to help you improve your health and enhance your life.

Dr. Ashton becomes both researcher and subject as she focuses on twelve separate challenges. Beginning with a new area of focus each month, she guides you through the struggles she faces, the benefits she experiences, and the science behind why each month’s challenge - giving up alcohol, doing more push-ups, adopting an earlier bedtime, limiting technology - can lead to better health.

Month by month, Dr. Ashton tackles a different area of wellness with the hope that the lessons she learns and the improved health she experiences will motivate her (and you) to make each change permanent. Throughout, she offers easy-to-comprehend health information about the particular challenge to help you understand its benefits and to stick with it. Whether it’s adding cardio or learning how to meditate, Dr. Ashton makes these daily lifestyle choices and changes feel possible - and shows how beneficial a mindful lifestyle can be.

Inspiring, practical, and informative, The Self-Care Solution teaches you how to recalibrate your life to enjoy a better, healthier year, one month at a time. Featuring guidance from top experts, entertaining case studies, easy-to-follow advice and tips, and Dr. Ashton’s observations and insights, this audiobook can help you achieve a better life balance and a more active and healthy lifestyle.

LOVED it!

Such an easy listen. Love the breakdown of each monthly challenge, the personal reasons for & experiences in the challenges, science-based benefits/information, as well as the practical application tips for listeners. Fantastic book!

life changing

I couldn't stop listening
Jennifer's knowledge and suggestions make me feel like I can do it. Starting month 1 immediately

A new outlook on healthy habits

I enjoyed this book so much that I am doing the monthly challenges. I read the book in January and started my first months challenge with a month of hydration beginning February. I'm planning to continue a challenge every month for a year. Do your body good by simply doing month long challenges.

Will listen to again. Great book

I truly enjoyed this book. Learned a lot and I’m looking forward to incorporating many of the suggestions she shared to living a healthier and happier life. I hope a second book soon follows!

This book inspired me, now to start month 1!

loved the book, can't wait to start my 12 month journey. mine might not all be the same. I never knew the benefits to meditate even my husband was listening and thought he would give it a try too!

Great practical advice for anyone

I live that Jennifier Reads the book herself. The advice is great. Even if you think you have everything perfect there is something new you will learn from this book.

Inspiring

I fully enjoyed this book and am inspired to follow Dr Ashton's experience. There is plenty of research showing us why we should make certain changes and adopt new habits, but how do you start? Where do you start? I found that this book answered my questions. You start small. One change for one month. I already started my January challenge, which is different than the author's, but it's meaningful to me. I'm looking forward to forming better habits this year.

Great book to read and inspire you

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It gives great tips on health, wellness, and happiness.

My one critique is that I wish that the audible book came with a pdf that outlined the ten steps for each of the challenges. It is hard to remember what they were and reference in the audible book without writing them down myself.

It’s all list of 12 things that was stretched into a book somehow

It’s all list of 12 things that was stretched into a book somehow. It’s chapter is something like laugh or drink water. Ugh I wish I knew. Save your money and time.

Could not finish

Completely unrelatable and irritating how the author was seemingly perfect, vain, and rich…and had no trouble pointing all of this out over and over during each “challenge” that she was (shocker) surprisingly good at and had no trouble with.
