Plenty of books have been written about budgeting for families. Eating Well for Less Than $30 a Week is aimed at helping single people on limited incomes eat nutritious food without breaking the bank, based on planning weekly or fortnightly menus. In the first section, I address the question, “Am I getting enough food?” Here I outline a typical weekly menu, which forms the basis for that week’s food purchases. The cost of these items is shown in detail in Section 4. Other sections cover eating while travelling, health issues, food storage, and tips for people working outside the home. I have also provided some recipes for cheap meals that can be prepared quickly and easily. This is a down-to-earth, commonsense guide to budgeting, with nutritional and health information thrown in for good measure.

Yoga therapy is commonly used for the management of arthritis, but often focusses exclusively on adaptation of the physical poses and on structural solutions. This book moves beyond the traditional routines to present yoga as a lifestyle designed to improve quality of life and overall well-being for individuals living with arthritis and rheumatic conditions. By incorporating the ancient practices of yoga as both physical and mental exercises involving a model of 5-koshas or sheaths (physical, energetic, mental/emotional, wisdom, and spiritual), the yoga therapy practice presented here will help reduce pain and shift the perspective of the individual living with arthritis. This therapy uses a whole-person approach that employs a broad range of tools to address the biopsychosocial effects of arthritis through the application of yoga practices and philosophy. Useful as a guide for people living with arthritis, this book is full of inspiration for self care along with instructions for yoga teachers and medical professionals to guide their clients using this whole-person perspective.
