Book Description
A showcase of the current culture and architecture, protagonists and ideas, and treatments and aims of twenty-first-century wellbeing. One of life's greatest pleasures is a day spent rejuvenating the body and nourishing the spirit. Humans have practiced self-care for centuries--in the sweat lodges of the American Southwest, Roman baths, the hammams of the Ottoman Empire, Japanese onsens, and Finnish saunas. Today, a new interest in self-care is redefining how we accomplish wellness, and there have never been more options. In our increasingly switched-on lives, a growing industry of highly choreographed experiences is geared to help us switch off. Be Well is a journey around the world's most extraordinary spaces for achieving this, looking at the innovative practices they offer and how to carry them into everyday life.

Book Description
Pamper yourself with the first four Sparkle Spa salon books, now available in one shimmering boxed set! Brooke and Aly are sisters, but they’re more than family—they’re family business owners! This boxed set includes four Sparkle Spa stories, from the start of their kids-only nail salon to polished (and unpolished!) adventures that follow. In All That Glitters, sisters Aly and Brooke Tanner have a brilliant idea: why don’t they open up a mini nail salon within their mom’s popular, busy, successful nail salon? The Sparkle Spa will be just for kids! In Purple Nails and Puppy Tails, Aly and Brooke agree to do doggy makeovers for the Annual Pup Adoption at the local shelter. But dogs aren’t exactly ideal mani-pedi customers, are they? In Makeover Magic, Aly and Brooke are giving manis and pedis for the annual Fall Ball dance at school. But when a flashy new nail salon opens right across the street, the sisters worry that Sparkle Spa’s days might be numbered! In True Colors, when Brooke breaks her arm, Aly has to bring in a replacement. But what if the new helper is even better at manis and pedis than Brooke is?
