Using "power walking" as a metaphor for achieving an optimal level of wellbeing - body, mind,and spirit, the author provides four steps to wellness. The author draws on her own experience of recovering from clinical depression.
With unusual transparency, the author reveals her faults, fears, and fights. The book begins with the history of falling and fainting. The book concludes with a decision to create a different kind of walk - a swag and a strut that demonstrate readiness for "a new thing".
As they "walk" readers will be challenged and encouraged by the poetry, prose, artistic designs and sacred writings. A memoir, a self-help text, a road map... this book is for anyone who yearns to overcome the impediments to wellness and for those who support, service, and love them.
