Sarah’s second book Work It Out: A Mood-Boosting Exercise Guide for People Who Just Want to Lie Down is now available worldwide via Quirk Books.

If you’re depressed, anxious, burned out, or struggling, it may feel impossible to get started, get serious, or even get up. This book provides clear, actionable, non-judgemental advice on how to navigate that.
