Four Quadrant Living: A Guide to Nourishing Your Mind, Body, Relationships, and Environment

**Winner of 10 book awards**

**Revised and updated edition, 2020**

Four Quadrant Living provides simple, natural, and fun ways to live a healthy and happy life. It offers a practical, balanced approach that can be used by anyone, regardless of age, previous health, or family history. Many people worry about getting cancer, diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, or heart disease because it "runs in the family." This attitude encourages a passive, out-of-my-hands approach. Fortunately, our health is not determined by our genetic makeup alone, but rather by the combination of our genetics and our nutritional, lifestyle, and environmental influences. Four Quadrant Living offers a new prescription for health--one that emphasizes positive steps readers can take to create health in all areas of their lives.

As Dina Colman Mitchell writes: "Every day we make choices that impact our health-the foods we eat, the products we use, the exercise we get, the stress we allow, the people we surround ourselves with, and the environment we live in. We may be eating well and exercising, but we cannot truly be healthy if our mind is stressed, our relationships are toxic, and our world is sick." Living healthy doesn't need to be complicated.

Four Quadrant Living shows readers how to take responsibility for their own health by providing logically organized and easily implemented ideas and suggestions for nourishing the "four quadrants" of our lives-Mind, Body, Relationships, and Environment. The book includes ways to reduce stress, laugh more, take fewer medications, sleep better, live mindfully, eat well, exercise more, sleep better, engage in healthy relationships, and reduce toxins in your environment.

In this revised and updated edition, Dina Colman Mitchell provides updated statistics and information and shares new insights from her own cancer journey. The author illustrates that even with disease, we can still be healthy.
