Emma Short

How (Not) to Do It all

'A fantastic guide for anyone hoping to improve their well-being. A simple yet comprehensive approach to leading a healthier and calmer life. A wonderful book!' — Dr Gemma Newman, The Plant Power Doctor, Author, GP and Podcast Host
'In this book Dr Emma manages to create a positive, affirming guide that inspires us to evaluate what might not be working for us and how to make changes to improve that, without being overwhelming and therefore offputting. How (Not) to Do It All is a helpful, inspiring and practical guide to being healthier.' — Saffia Farr, Editor, JUNO Magazine
Dr Emma Short offers a fresh perspective with a simple evidence-based guide to leading a healthier, happier and calmer life. It has a holistic approach to wellbeing, exploring areas as diverse as exercise, nutrition, the impact of the digital and natural environment, sleep, mindset and not taking on too much.
'Energise your life' is a simple evidence-based guide to leading a healthier, happier and calmer life.
'During my PhD, I spent many hours at cancer-related conferences, and it was clear that vast amounts of research time and money are spent on the diagnosis of cancer and its treatment. This is vitally important, but significantly fewer resources are spent on health promotion and cancer prevention. I strongly feel that prevention is better than cure, and I'm very passionate about health promotion and disease prevention.
'I have also experienced “Superwoman Syndrome” and am aware of countless other women who are in the same boat. Although there is a wealth of advice about how to achieve a desirable work-life balance, there is a lack of information which addresses why we might take on too much in the first place.'

Quotes

  • Raghad Haydarhas quoted2 months ago
    When we exercise, our bodies release chemicals called endorphins. These are similar in structure to morphine, and make us feel positive and energised, and can also reduce our perception of pain.
  • Raghad Haydarhas quoted2 months ago
    If we are physically active, our risk of death from any cause is reduced by around fifty per cent compared to those people who are inactive. Generally, the fitter we become, the greater the reduction in risk
