Yonect

by Rupa Mehta

How can so many people in our society be physically light and fit, but emotionally heavy and out-of-shape? We think about the food we digest into our bodies, but do we think about the words we digest into our spirits? Could one word have the power to weigh more than a single scoop of ice cream? Connect to Your One is about acknowledging the ‘weight of words’ and the impact words have on shaping our identity. In her first book, Rupa Mehta motivates us to start a word detox, lose the weight of words, and connect to the ‘One Word’ that represents our true spirit.

Called a “pint-sized guru” by VOGUE Magazine and the “Rachel Ray of Fitness” by the New York Post, Rupa is known for her dynamic, innovative, and accessible approaches to wellness. Her successful, signature fitness class, groundbreaking philosophies about weight, and notable commitment to spreading wellness through volunteerism has transformed bodies, lives, and communities.In Connect to Your One, Rupa takes us on a special journey as she shares her unique vision of wellness, challenges our view of weight, and discovers her healthiest self in ‘One Word’ that motivates, inspires, drives, and guides CONNECT. What’s your ONE word?

[Prateek Batla · Rating 3 out of 5]

Very simple and powerful book.

I like the way Rupa has portrayed the important life lessons in her simple writing style. Nowadays life has become so fast-paced that we don't get time to understand what's happening. One should be able to Connect to self to live the life to fullest. Rupa has used examples of everyday life that help us resonate and understand this better.

She starts by stating the power of words, then sharing life lessons by her father and mother, and ends with portraying the importance of thank you and connecting with oneself.
