“I have been in some deep, dark places where I could see no light at all. I started my life in such a place… I was the lonely, depressed, and overweight girl; I was the workaholic; I was ill with stress; I was addicted to caffeine and cigarettes… I was the chronic dieter.

“I was all those things, each and every one, and it felt overwhelming and insurmountable, but I have seen God deliver me from all those troubles once I achieved clarity and made the decision to concentrate on the basic… Now I feel great. I accomplish more than ever before, reach more people, and do it all with the joy, passion, and freedom that God intended us to live with every day.”

--Joyce Meyer, Look Great Feel Great

ST. LOUIS (4/4/06) — Look Great Feel Great - 12 Keys to Enjoying a Healthy Life Now, by New York Times bestselling author Joyce Meyer, offers reasons why people don’t take care of their health — including losing touch with exercise, “unworkable lives,” and forgetting their intrinsic value — and provides prescriptions for these reasons in twelve chapters containing the keys to great health. Joyce also reveals for the first time her fifty-plus year journey through poor health to strength and vitality, sharing the twelve keys to good health discovered along the way.

Meyer says, “I wrote Look Great Feel Great because I am sixty-three years old and I can truthfully say that I feel better physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually than I ever have in my life… I want to help you get there. Every person was put on this earth to spread God’s love, and nothing could be more valuable than that. God has a great future planned for you and you need to be ready for it!”

(See Jeremiah 29:11.)

The disclosure of a long battle with illness, as well as her public bout with breast cancer in 1989, her experiences with abuse, self-neglect, shame, workaholism, a failed marriage, and poor eating and exercise habits, will help readers from all walks of life. The twelve keys to enjoying a healthy life are: Let God Do the Heavy Lifting, Learning to Love Your Body, Mastering Metabolism, Exercise, Balanced Eating, Water Your Life, Mindful Eating, Curb Your Spiritual Hunger, De-Stress, Right Vision, Make It Easy, and Take Responsibility. Each key provides information on why that principle is essential, personal testimonies from Joyce and others, along with five practical suggestions for implementation. Each reader is also asked to “take action” at the end of each chapter to help them achieve a healthy lifestyle. (See 1 Corinthians 6:19.)
