For many, the idea of changing their daily habits to lose weight or reverse or prevent illness can be intimidating. Many simply don't know where to start to create a healthier lifestyle. 

My new book, Your Holistically Hot Transformation: Embrace a Healthier Lifestyle Free of Dieting, Confusion and Self-Judgment, focuses on small, simple changes women can make that build on each other to create big results such as weight loss, increased energy, more confidence and glowing skin.

The tips outlined in the book are designed to be approachable and available to anyone, removing the barrier to entry on a holistically healthy lifestyle, one that combines elements of mind, body and spirit. 

You'll find recommendations like: 

·      How to upgrade your favorite takeout meals with better-for-you ingredients without sacrificing flavor. For example, my Healthy Pad Thai recipe is veggie-heavy, substitutes fiber-rich spaghetti squash in place of noodles and skips the sugar-laden sauce most restaurants use.

• Forget willpower, give your plate a makeover instead. Piling your plate with more vegetables , especially leafy greens, the #1 food missing in most American diets, will boost energy, "crowd out" the less nutritious foods and help manage cravings. 
• Experiment gently with everyday superfoods If plant foods are the cake — the staples around which you build your meals — superfoods are the icing. Spread and sprinkle them around to enhance your food. Acai offers healthy fats, Goji berries fight colds and Spirulina, a blue-green algae, us a powerful energy booster.
• Focus on "carbs that count" Fixating on a low-carb diet will leave you zapped of energy. Get the benefit of sustained energy and filling fiber with low-glycemic carbohydrates like quinoa, sweet potatoes and squash.
