Angela Lansbury's Positive Moves: My Personal Plan for Fitness and Well-Being

Product Information

When I was growing up, women over 60 wore flowered house dresses or polyester twin sets — with a fat string of Barbara Bush beads, if they were being fancy. She left us without writing a full memoir, so we must be grateful for the few stories about growing up in England, balancing professional successes with personal struggles, etc.

Angela Lansbury, successful film and television actress, stars in this documentary about her personal program for fitness and well-being. This is a delightful and quick read that one is able to do with the author's voice just saying the words in your head.Published in 1990, Lansbury's thoughts on managing her weight, moods, effects of aging and staying mentally healthy are mostly timeless. com) is a for-profit, socially conscious business and a global online bookseller that collects and sells new and used books online, matching each purchase with a book donation. All written content, unless otherwise noted as being quotes, has been written and copyrighted by me. When Positive Moves came out, Lansbury was most recognizable as the star of Murder, She Wrote, which was in the fifth of its twelve seasons.

International products have separate terms, are sold from abroad and may differ from local products, including fit, age ratings, and language of product, labeling or instructions.While offering her reader techniques in eating, staying active, and living joyfully, Lansbury also discusses how her personal and professional experiences (especially work on Broadway and Murder, She Wrote) helped her discover how to care for herself and those around her. If you’re too young to remember, it was a perfect storm of spandex and leg warmers, brought on by Jane Fonda’s Workout Book and Olivia Newton John’s “Physical,” and culminating in every single famous person ever putting out a workout video. But there's actually a lot of good advice to behold here no matter your age, and the notion of an older star promoting her fitness routine and lifestyle advice to women of her age range was ahead of its time in the 1980s.
