Revive: Stop Feeling Spent and Start Living Again
From the doctor whose “extraordinary practice is at the vanguard of a revolutionary way to deliver medical care” (O, The Oprah Magazine), an easy program to restore energy and health.
• Do you feel unusually exhausted?
• Do you have trouble sleeping?
• Does your digestion bother you?
• Do you have aching muscles and joints?
• Do you feel like you're aging too quickly?
• Do you feel like you're running on empty?
Fatigue, unexplained back and joint pain, distractibility, irritability, insomnia, and digestive problems leave many of us feeling spent—and there is no pill that reverses the effects. Many Americans are plagued by this new epidemic, and doctors are unable to diagnose any single cause.
But Dr. Frank Lipman knows that this profound feeling of general unwellness is not part of the normal aging process. In this revolutionary book, Dr. Lipman is the first to connect the dots in a constellation of symptoms, offering a proven solution to combat the pervasive syndrome he calls Spent. When someone is Spent, the body is doing everything it can to indicate that it is time to slow down, rest, detoxify, repair, replenish, and restore. Dr. Lipman has helped thousands of patients who suffer from Spent to revive their bodies—and, in most cases, feel more energized and healthier than they ever have before.
In Spent, Dr. Lipman first identifies the things in modern life that lead to energy depletion, such as stress, light deprivation, an erratic sleep schedule, and a diet high in sugar and processed foods. Next, he creates "Daily Beats," a series of simple actions—such as sleep, diet, exercise, nutrition, meditation, and relaxation—that readers can take to repair their stressed systems and nourish their bodies and minds.
As with Dr. Lipman's patients, anyone following his day-by-day program will feel energized, vibrant, and younger. With a nutrition plan of tasty recipes photographs of research-based exercises and stretches, and wisdom from Dr. Lipman's thirty years of medical practice, Spent puts readers back in touch with their bodies' natural rhythms and introduces them to a lifetime of good health.

I was drawn into all things Dr. Frank Lipman after a weekend of wellness with Frank, Kris Carr, Sharon Gannon, and Robert Thurman -- what a crew of good souls! -- at Menla Mountain Retreat in October 2012.
What I love about this book is what I appreciate so much about Frank and his approach to everything: He's realistic, reminds us how we can help our bodies heal (and thrive) naturally, and gives you manageable doses to walk you through to feeling good again.
Excellent and fun to read/use...at your own pace, and includes simple, at-home exercises, self-massage (tennis ball foot massage!), playlists, and fabulous recipes.
Lots more on his Be Well web site. I'm a proud affiliate now, and here's the link: http://www.bewellbydrfranklipman.com/...

December 9, 2011Reading this for my husband, since he doesn't have time. So he will have only himself to blame when I start feeding him avocado and green powder smoothies for breakfast and making him put tennis balls under his shoulders. Basically full of sound advice so far, cut out sugar and caffeine because they make you more tired after the initial short-lived boost, improve your nutrition, etc. It isn't quick-fix stuff, but it's presented in small steps anybody can take.
