Eight Steps to Me

About the Book

Eight Steps to Me was born in the footsteps of a woman finding her path. Four years ago, Pirkko Tavaila was a busy woman living in Finland. Like her “super-woman peers” everywhere, her life was filled with work, family, friends, a list of social activities, and hobbies. In the midst of all the doing and achieving, she kept dreaming of simplicity, peace, and good health. Instead, insomnia, aches, and endless colds had become her way of life. Completely out of energy, she felt like failing in all areas of life. One day, on a remote beach, she decided to turn her life around. Today she walks her talk as a holistic health coach, helping stressed-out adults live their lives to the fullest. Eight Steps to Me will assist you too, to find the wisdom within you. • Learn to understand about energy. • Find out how to be supported by body, mind and soul, your three musketeers. • Be courageous and trust. By design, you are perfect.
