Vibrant Living by Molly Shattuck
Vibrant Living by Molly Shattuck is a book that shows you how easy it is to live life healthy and vibrantly. There is no need for crash dieting or putting your body under extreme ” torture” just to achieve that magical number or size.
It is actually quite simple. You just need to take note of the four pillars to vibrant living
1st Pillar- Water
2nd Pillar- Exercise
3rd Pillar- Eating Real
4th Pillar- Living for others.
In 21 days it is possible to see a change in yourself if you follow what Molly has suggested in her 21 Day Action Plan.
Before you start yourself on the 21 Day Action Plan Molly has a questionnaire which one must fill in which helps you define your personal goals and how you intend to go about in achieving your goals.
Each day Molly gives inspirational tips and shows a series of exercises that one can do to make up the 30 minutes of exercise required to keep healthy. There are also simple recipes at the back of the book together with a sample grocery list to get your started.
My thoughts
I really enjoyed reading this book. Molly Shattucks guide is really simple and easy to follow and something that is really “do-able” as compared to the other weight lost books that I have read so far.
I have been struggling with weight lost for the past two years since the birth of Tiger girl in 2010 and still have about 10kg to get back to ideal weight.
This book really came at the right time and I will be putting myself on Molly’s 21 day action plan starting tomorrow 🙂

It sounds great, as it’s simple and practical! Balance is such a key as well; don’t do anything to the extreme or in excess!

This book actually sounds interesting. It seems like real world advice, not a fast fix.

I’m always a little put off when people write a book about “living for others.” I live my life by first and foremost trying to know, love and serve God. When I’m successful at that He brings people and situations into my life to help me prioritize.
Other than that I fully believe in water, exercise and good foods to stay healthy 🙂

@Sharon,
I personally believe in living for GOD and 2nd for yourself. Living for others is questionable and I don’t think that I can be as gracious as the author in that sense. That aside I also think that the other 3 pillars are doable for myself.

Sharon’s comment is so interesting, because I believe if you do like yourself first, you tend to treat others just as well, because you are doing unto them as you would yourself. That good ‘ol golden rule works every time 😉

@Courtney,
Ditto what you said 🙂 A person’s perceptive on live- positive or negative does have a compounding effect on their environment.

That book sounds interesting. It seems like we all have challenges with something. I should exercise more regularly, but I\’m not very good at it. I do it for awhile and then something gets in the way and I don\’t do it for awhile. Then I\’m out of the habit. That is where I am now. Monday though, I\’m starting again.
