From stress to saturated fats, HIIT to HRT, veganism to vitamins, This Book Could Save Your Life debunks the fads and explores the real science of better health.

In memory of their young daughters - Sophie, Beth and Emily - who took their own lives, three dads set out on a 300-mile journey across the country, from the windswept Lakeland fells and Peak District dales to the open plains of the Eastern fens. Putting one foot in front of the other in spite of their pain, they capture the hearts of the nation; laughing together, crying together, fighting to be heard. This book, built around personal diary entries, grew from a place of great grief and loss, but is also about the power of speaking out, of friendship and hope (and blisters).

Traditional workouts feel too intense, complicated, or unsafe, and sitting still seems easier. Over time, this caution quietly chips away at your confidence, independence, and joy in movement.

Goat yoga. Beer yoga. Dance party yoga. Wine and chocolate yoga.
