    • DO HOLIDAYS FILL YOU WITH DREAD Where do you go if you want to THINK, RELAX, BREATH AND FIND YOURSELF AGAIN. And, just as important, where should you avoid? This book explores which climates and cultures are therapeutic for loneliness, anxiety, depression, lack of focus, anger management. Where feeds your soul. Established travel writer, author and broadcaster Sarah Tucker has spent twenty years researching those journeys and holidays which dramatically change the way we feel and think about ourselves - in a positive and negative way. The sun, sand and sea holiday most of us choose is not always best for our emotional well being, and one person's perfect break can be another's nightmare. THE A TO ZEN OF TRAVEL looks at the types of journeys that rid us of emotional baggage and those which add to it. Now training as a psychologist, Sarah has teamed up with Professor Edward de Bono to produce a seminal book which will change the way we choose and think about travel, for pleasure, for business, for life. "You will never choose your holiday the same way again. This is a remarkable, innovative book which will not only change the way you travel but the way you think about yourself." Professor Edward de Bono

Within five minutes I was on the floor - chest open and sinking into a bollard of foam (because she told me to). She is that kind of gym teacher I always wanted but never had. Sarah has spirituality and SO MUCH more. I could have rolled around all day. In one short hour I upped my fading self-belief and ignited a sense of hope in the future -more tangibly I could also touch my toes, downward dog it quite a lot and much more.
