READY STEADY GLOW – Madeleine Shaw
Maddy’s second gorgeous cookbook will hit the shelves this April 7th. We love her healthy and happy attitude to cooking, and this collection of recipes reflects easy, yet delicious meals, that can be whipped up in under 30 minutes, all wheat and sugar free. A focus on natural ingredients to nourish your body from within and banish any cravings for those fatty or sugary treats. Expect speedy breakfasts, lunches for those that are on the go, and and fuss free dinners to fuel you from morning to evening with boundless energy.

Maddy … “You’ll be feasting – not fasting – on food that tastes so good you’ll forget the things you’re cutting out”

 

PRETTY HAPPY – Kate Hudson
Kate’s new book is far more than just a book on losing weight. Instead, it teaches us about how to connect with our bodies on a deeper level, understanding what our body needs and wants, all the while creating a great relationship with ourselves. Kate focuses on four pillars of Health to bring about the best version of ourselves; cultivating an intuitive relationship with your body, eating well, awakening our bodies through movement and the miracle of mindfulness. It features body type and stress level questionnaires which will help you identify your areas of concern and what you need to work on to feel your happiest and look your very best. We love the shift away from striving for perfection, and the emphasis on self-love and tips for boosting self-esteem and confidence.

Kate… “When you understand yourself and connect to how you can become body smart, you realize pretty quickly that the perfect, the ideal is not the goal. Instead, the goal is feeling good in your body.”

Some of Natasha’s recipes take under ten minutes to put together, so there really is no excuse to cook healthily. You’ll be equipped with skills on how to slash time by prepping ahead, reusing veggies in different meals throughout the week and leaving dishes in the oven to get on with other things.
