That means you can work on your fitness as you lie in bed listening to your favorite podcast or on the couch with Netflix for company. You may not sweat, but you will feel the benefits as your muscles tone and tighten.There's even a bit of science behind to prove it really works, which Susan touches on in the book.

Susan will describe the target muscles to be stretched and give a detailed 'How To' stretch them in a fun but still safe way to override the stretch resistance of the muscle spindles and gain more strength and flexibility.

Fifty bridges from all over the world to be crossed on foot or with one's imagination., /p> Bridges can both link people and cultures, providing access and communication, or divide them. They are both steady and fragile, have architectural style and aesthetic qualities. Many ancient myths even present bridges as passages between faraway worlds.

But it is also a book of stories that accompany these bridges: legends, anecdotes and the inspirational lives of those who designed, built and crossed them.
