Fit As a Fiddle Happy As a Lark


Book Description

Could there be an any better moment for this book to come out? I think not. We are rendered with an unprecedented situation.The capricious virus bodes ill for those who aren't attuned to their wellbeing. And being so, our surest bet in the fight against this pandemic with unmitigated transmogrification is our robust health- both mental and physical. Hence, the subject was chosen for this book.We all know that this too shall pass and, in its passing, the humanity shall be left with an irreversible alteration made to their daily lives which, if employed to our advantage may work wonder for us.The book that you are holding in your hands shall prove to be instrumental in this quest for maintaining or regaining your well-being.Neelam Mankar, the author of "Fit as a Fiddle" is a fitness enthusiast who has lived a life committed to health, wealth, and good relations. This commitment has taken her through some amazing memories, both, personally and professionally. Working for thirty-four years in a prestigious government organisation, viz. Reserve Bank of India and National Bank of Agriculture & Development, has made her an expert Financial Coach. Abundance is one of her foremost values and she believes in creating an abundant life for herself and her clients. She is also a Certified Life Coach. A globe-trotter at heart, she has travelled to 24 countries. One of the motivations in all her visits has been to explore the fitness and wellness culture around the world. Keeping herself updated with new and upcoming fitness trends has been a relentless pursuit for her.Neelam's achievements say it all. Though she is in her golden years, in 2019 she effortlessly conquered the Tiger's Nest in Bhutan, which even a person in their twenties would find difficult. In 2018, she took part in the Guinness Book of records Plankathon event held in Pune, India. One must say, a person who has lived as good as without a single pill all her life surely has earned the right to write a book on health. I have known Neelam for a couple of years now and I can assure you that she practises what she preaches.Talking about Sreeti A. Amonkar, the author of "Happy as a Lark", with over twenty-five years of broad experience under her belt, she is hailed as one of the foremost communication skills trainers in the industry right now. One has to only Google her out to read about all the remarkable things that her students, clients and ex-employers have to say about her.What allured her to visit Bhutan in 2019 was to meet the citizens of the world's happiest nation. Her happiness knew no bounds, the very moment she stepped onto the land of happiness. Her take on the entire visit to Bhutan was that material possessions hardly constitute for real happiness.I have known Sreeti for quite a few years now. It's not that her life is perfect. On the contrary, just like everybody else's, she has her share of joys and sorrows. What sets her apart is that she always exudes happiness. Her happiness is contagious. That's why I feel she is the best person to write on the subject of happiness. I'm sure that this contagion of happiness will be passed

The Soaring Life of the Lark


Book Description

"How to describe the ecstatic song of larks? How the writers and poets have tried..." Skylarks are the heralds of our countryside. Their music is the quintessential sound of spring. The spirit of English pastoralism, they inspire poets, composers and farmers alike. In the trenches of World War I they were a reminder of the chattering meadows of home. Perhaps you were up with the lark, or as happy as one. History has seen us poeticise and musicise the bird, but also capture and eat them. We watch as they climb the sky, delight in their joyful singing, and yet we harm them too. The Soaring life of the Lark explores the music and poetry; the breath-taking heights and struggle to survive of one of Britain's most iconic songbirds. PRAISE FOR JOHN LEWIS-STEMPEL 'Britain's finest living nature writer' - The Times 'Lewis-Stempel is a fourth-generation farmer gifted with an extraordinary ability to write prose that soars and sings' - Daily Mail




Goodbye, Lark Lovejoy


Book Description

For readers of Katherine Center and Kristan Higgins, an immersive, soul-nourishing novel that dares to hold onto hope when happily-ever-after seems lost. Full of character, wit, and wisdom, Goodbye, Lark Lovejoy explores second chances and the power of connection. Lark’s lost her husband, and the expiration date has come and gone on her fake-it-till-you-make-it “Happy Mommy Show.” Healing her broken family requires drastic measures—like returning to her hometown in the Texas Hill Country. But she’s going to need more than clean air and a pastoral landscape to rebuild a life for her and her young sons. After years of putting off her dream of becoming a winemaker, Lark puts every cent into a failing vineyard, determined to work through her grief and make a brighter future for her children. The last thing she expects is to fall in love again. Especially not with Wyatt Gifford, an injured Army vet with a past of his own to conquer. Coming home may not be the reset Lark imagined, but it does take her on a journey filled with humor and reconciliation—one that prepares her for a courageous comeback.




Lark and Termite


Book Description

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From the award-winning author a "powerful and emotionally piercing" novel (The New York Times) set during the 1950 in West Virginia and Korea, that intertwines family secrets, war, dreams, and ghosts in a story about the love that unites us all. Lark and Termite is a rich, wonderfully alive novel about seventeen year old Lark and her brother, Termite, living in West Virginia in the 1950s. Their mother, Lola, is absent, while their aunt, Nonie, raises them as her own, and Termite’s father, Corporal Robert Leavitt, is caught up in the early days of the Korean War. Told with deep feeling, the novel invites us deep into the hearts and thoughts of Lark, on the verge of adulthood, and her brother, Termite, a child unable to walk and talk, who is filled with radiance. We are also with Corporal Leavitt, trapped by friendly fire alongside the Korean children he tries to rescue. We see Lark’s dreams for Termite and her own future, and how, with the aid of a childhood love and a spectral social worker, she makes them happen. We learn of Lola’s love for her soldier husband and her children, and unravel the mystery of her relationship with Nonie. We discover the lasting connections between past and future on the night the town experiences an overwhelming flood, and we follow Lark and Termite as their lives are changed forever.
