This book accomplishes what it says: You really can ‘walk your way to better’. If you are thinking ‘a better what’? The answer is A BETTER YOU.
Shulman gives us 99 short chapters and walks. These chapters can be read within a few minutes and consist of a statement to start you thinking, information/research or a story from her life that she deems appropriate to the topic she is directly talking to you about. Now, after you finish a chapter go do as Shulman highly suggests and take a walk! Walking helps the brain process what it just read. You may surprise yourself with the thoughts that may come to you as you walk!
This is not a self-help book about losing weight, though that could possibly happen if you walk after each chapter as Shulman intends. By the time you are finished you feel accomplished and as if you know the author. Shulman also encourages you to be interactive with the book, besides walking: write down your thoughts, answer the questions she poses in this book, etc.
Shulman does say that not every chapter will ‘speak’ to you and this was true for me. I am not a mother, and Shulman is and she wrote about her children a lot in the chapters. So much so I started to think I was not the target demographic for this book and then… BAM… I read a chapter that ‘spoke’ to me and changed my thoughts on this book.
This book is for every woman to read. Read it and also walk your way to better!
