The Healthy Lifestyle Workbook: Principles and Practice is designed to provide readers with the knowledge to construct a healthy lifestyle. This involves personal patterns of thinking, feeling, and acting that contribute to overall health, well-being, and happiness. The book addresses the issue of unhealthy lifestyles, including chronic diseases and risk behaviors, proposing methods for improvement through personal accountability and change.
The text employs a practical structure, separating content into three distinct sections: The Context, The Plan, and Constructing a Healthy Lifestyle. It guides readers through understanding the principles of a healthy lifestyle, creating personal plans, and implementing change through five key steps: needs, goals, resources, action, and evaluation. Real-life scenarios are included to illustrate the application of theoretical constructs in practical settings.
The Healthy Lifestyle Workbook is well suited for aspiring healthcare practitioners, including nursing, social work, counseling, physical therapy, and occupational therapy students. Its interactive style is engaging for individuals and groups outside classroom settings, including health practitioners working with their clients.

"Throughout my career, I have been presented with many individuals who aspire to create and maintain a life that demonstrates becoming the best version of themselves while reaching their fullest potential. The Healthy Lifestyle Workbook: Principles and Practice by Dr. Sandra Rasmussen allows the reader to explore many ways to reach self-actualization through building a healthy lifestyle geared to success. Each chapter clearly aids in self help which is a necessary element to inspire intrinsic motivation and positive intrinsic change. As a college professor and drug and alcohol counselor, the first step in creating healthy well-being begins with acknowledging the need and making a plan that invokes positive intrinsic change. This book cultivates the perfect recipe for doing so by being user-friendly not only in the classroom, but by aiding those struggling with addiction or any issues that warrant lifestyle adjustments to positively change our trajectory to gain inner peace."

"Don't read this book if you are looking for esoteric theories or quick fixes. This author is all about true common sense and how to pick yourself up, and she writes in a style that is both lucid and laser-focused on what good health is and how it can be achieved. Her optimism is infectious. This book is all about 'games' people should play with themselves to reach their most serene potential."
