It’s a great way to meet – or exceed – your five a day and enjoy a healthy, balanced diet.

A surprising number of people suffer from panic attacks and panic disorder. Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) has made psychological therapy more accessible to those in need.

Written in a friendly, encouraging – and jargon-free – style, it encourages interactive reading through illustrations and worksheets. Real-life case studies demonstrate the use of each intervention and how you can understand your panic cycle and work through your condition.
Mediterranean Cooking for Diabetics
Written especially for those with Type 2 diabetes (or those at risk of developing it) who love food and enjoy cooking, this book represents a whole new way of eating and cooking. Diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes himself, Robin Ellis, TV’s original Poldark, explains the changes he made that helped him bring his glucose level down, and shares the recipes that he has created, adapted and enjoyed as the basis of his Mediterranean way of eating. The recipes are easy to follow and, above all, delicious.

This uplifting memoir is a testament to faith and family and a balm for the soul.
