Eat Move Sleep by Tom Rath

Written and narrated by Leigh Martinuzzi (originally published Oct, 7th 2014)

This book is a very basic and easy review of healthy living. The information shared may come across as general knowledge however with the increasing health epidemic across the globe, much of what Tom shares must be disregarded or at least not acted upon.

Health, illness and diseases are one of the biggest challenges we face in our world today. And while I am far from the perfect example of how human health should look, this book supplies, in an easy to read format, how we can all move towards a healthier life.

Tom reviews how eating, moving and sleeping a bit better each day can have massive cumulative effects on our overall health in both the short and longer terms. He shares simple ideas and techniques on how to move away from potentially life-threatening behaviours and habits into creating new and more rewarding ones.

Tom has written several books mostly focusing on our strengths however he decided to write this book as he was tired of seeing people suffer unnecessarily and die early which in his words “may sound dramatic but is the truth”. He has also been battling cancer for the past 20 years and in search for methods on how to slow cancerous growth he also discovered how to prevent cancer and other international killers such as heart disease, diabetes and obesity.

Tom doesn’t get to technically which what I believe makes this book a great and easy read while still providing a refreshing reminder of how many of us could simply improve the quality of our lives by focusing on our health- and the good news is that it need not be difficult.

It highlights that all those little things we do and the decisions we make each day can have a significant effect on our overall wellbeing. A great inspiring read and refreshing outlook, why not!
