LIVING THE GOOD LIFE
Simple Principles for Strength, Balance, and Inner Beauty

“The simple exercises that Ruth and I have been doing together for years...the exercise of taking a simpler approach to life, have strengthened not only my body but my mind and spirit as well. She has been more of an inspiration to me than she could ever know.”
—Amy Grant, singer/songwriter

Ruth McGinnis maintains that for people to be healthy, they must become well-rounded individuals — incorporating diet, exercise and rest into the health equation. She even deals with such lifestyle issues as the intrusion of television and its time-robbing effect upon our lives. Thoughtfully written, Living The Good Life is a pleasure to read and will appeal primarily to women, but the simple principles are universally applicable.”
