<p>Are you deeply healthy? Not just free of disease or illness, but living with <strong>a profound sense of vitality that sustains you as you move through your life</strong>? This can be hard to achieve in the midst of life&rsquo;s competing priorities...whether it&rsquo;s our families, our careers, our social lives, or our passions, our attention and care is often focused more on those around us than on ourselves. And, as a result, <em>we</em> get depleted.<br />
<br />
But in order to sustain all the things you care most deeply about, you need to build a strong foundation of health and vitality. In<strong> THE VITALITY MAP:<em> A Guide to Deep Health, Joyful Self-Care, and Resilient Well-Being</em></strong>, naturopathic physician&nbsp;Dr. Deborah Zucker shows you how.<br />
<br />
<strong>TRANSFORMING YOUR RELATIONSHIP TO HEALTH</strong><br />
<br />
Each year, thousands of new health books are published offering quick, easy lifestyle changes that will lead you to the &ldquo;promised land&rdquo; of overflowing vitality and boundless energy. While many of these approaches are valid, few are built to last. <strong>When confronted with the inevitable pressures and old habits, our best intentions often crumble. </strong><br />
<br />
Why? Most health solutions don&rsquo;t go deep enough. They focus on symptoms, ingredients, habits, diets, and exercises. But they don&rsquo;t get to the bottom of your <strong>fundamental relationship to health and how you care for yourself</strong>. In<em> The Vitality Map,</em> Dr. Zucker guides you on a deep and transformative journey that helps you to build a strong foundation for long-term health, vitality, and well-being.<br />
<br />
Based on her own profound health transformation and her work as a licensed naturopathic physician, Dr. Zucker helps you to disentangle from the patterns that hold you back from real and lasting health breakthroughs:</p>

<ul>
<li>The boom and bust cycles</li>
<li>The constant need to put others first</li>
<li>The feeling that no matter what health strategy you try, you always end up back in the same place</li>
</ul>

<p>By going step-by-step through her 9 Keys, you&rsquo;ll skillfully shine a light on these unconscious patterns and build new ones that will guide you on your health journey.<br />
<br />
<strong>THE 9 KEYS TO DEEP VITALITY</strong><br />
<br />
<em>The Vitality Map</em> isn&rsquo;t just a book full of theories and ideas. Dr. Zucker&rsquo;s 9 Keys are based on her own personal health journey&mdash;a struggle with chronic fatigue and other persistent health issues in which <strong>she uncovered many of the hidden assumptions and habits that were holding her back from being deeply healthy</strong>.<br />
<br />
Building on this experience, Dr. Zucker dedicates a chapter to each key and <strong>uses anecdotes from her own life and her work with her clients to illuminate her vitality principles</strong>. She also provides practical exercises, meditations, and inquiry questions for each key so you can put them to use right away in your own life:</p>

<ol>
<li><strong>Honoring Your Unique Life</strong></li>
<li><strong>Facing and Embracing Your Shadows</strong></li>
<li><strong>Strengthening Your Self-Awareness Muscles</strong></li>
<li><strong>Cultivating Resilience</strong></li>
<li><strong>Aligning with Your &ldquo;Yes!&rdquo;</strong></li>
<li><strong>Experimenting with Playful Curiosity</strong></li>
<li><strong>Discovering Easeful Discipline</strong></li>
<li><strong>Inviting Support and Connection</strong></li>
<li><strong>Living Like You Matter</strong></li>
</ol>

<p><em>The Vitality Map</em> doesn&rsquo;t offer a quick fix. The 9 Keys make up a long-term guide to developing a healthy foundation that will sustain your life, your work, and your being.</p>
