Naturally Thin has been on the New York Times Best Seller list for 18 weeks now! We’re at #13, just out of the top ten, but still hanging in there. You wouldn’t believe the amazing testimonials Bethenny is getting from hundreds of women who have lost weight after reading this book. The frank message has really meant a lot to a lot of people, and helped them see their way out of the tangle of disordered eating and diet obsession. If you haven’t checked it out yet, please do!
Meanwhile, we’ve just finished Bethenny Frankel’s second book, Skinnygirl Dish, which will be out in January, so stay tuned for that. I think you’re going to love it. It’s full of amazing, easy, economical, delicious recipes to help keep you on the skinnygirl track. You can preorder it here.
Another book that just came out is The Complete Idiot’s Guide to the Chakras, which I wrote with my beautiful and talented friend, Dr. Betsy Rippentrop, a psychologist and yoga teacher who uses chakra therapy with some of her clients. This book is a great introduction to the chakras–what they are, what they mean for you, and how to work with them to maximize your potential. It’s a fun and easy read with a lot of hands-on help.
I’ve also got a few more books coming out. Pets Gone Green is a book about how to live “green” with your companion animals, and the many implications of that, from the importance of spay/neuter and adopting (recycling) rather than buying a pet to how to buy less, buy smarter, use more natural products, and tune in to your pet’s natural instincts. The book also talks about why holistic health care is more eco-friendly, what foods are best, and even how to compost pet waste and design an eco-friendly and pet-friendly home and yard. That book will be out in October.
If you like to bake, look for another book I’ve got coming out, also in October, called Chow Hound: Wholesome Home Cooking for Your Doggy. It’s a cookbook for dog treats, so you can have more control over what you feed your dog. Many dog treats are just canine junk food, but not these. The recipes are easy, fun, economical, and you can even eat them yourself, if you are so inclined.
Finally, two of my books were recently released. First is 365 Ways to Reduce Stress, which is a great little book full of quick reminders about how to relax, calm down, and reverse the damaging stress response in your everyday life. Also released in April: Barron’s Beagle Bible. Please check that out if you have or are considering adopting a Beagle.
Yes, it’s been a really busy year, but I can’t complain. I love writing books and plan to keep ‘em coming, so keep checking back for more news. Thanks for your support!
