(Entertainment-NewsWire.com, January 29, 2020 ) Linda Penkala’s momentous experience with heart disease led her to create the Wise Heart Health program featured in her new book, THE PAUSE to Relax Ladies, for Robust Heart Health—A Guidebook for Smart Heart Choices for Life. The guide has been published by Outskirts Press—the fastest-growing, full-service self-publishing and book marketing company. Heart disease is the #1 killer of women—and yet the deeper causes are often overlooked or dismissed. Chronic and relentless stress, as well as emotions, play a major role in heart disease, and it’s imperative that women focus on the value of lifestyle changes for prevention of this killer.
Drawing on a vast wealth of knowledge from her experience as a massage therapist, Linda Penkala generously shares the life lessons she has learned from helping clients to sink joyfully into relaxation on the massage table. She also shares powerful analogies from her years of riding racehorses, illuminating parallels between an extraordinarily demanding sport and the dangerous pace and speed of women’s lives. With holistic suggestions for self-care ranging from essential oils to simple techniques to enhance deep sleep, Linda’s balanced approach will leave readers feeling positive and hopeful.
Linda—the leading female jockey in Maryland in the seventies and eighties—urges women to seek out moments of relaxation, to connect with other women, to laugh, and to let nature nurture their soul. Just like in racing, awareness of the pace is critical to finishing strong, so taking moments to pause is nourishing and deeply needed for women of all ages.
“Life is a race marked by a start and a finish. It is what we learn during the race, and how we apply it, that determines whether our participation has had particular value. If we learn from each success, and each failure, and improve ourselves through this process, then, at the end, we will have fulfilled our potential and performed well” (Ferdinand Porsche).
For those who are ready to become educated and empowered to enhance their quality of life, THE PAUSE is the compass needed to navigate the rocky terrain of modern life and arrive at the garden of tranquility and inner peace with a healthy heart.

About the Author: As a wellness educator of over thirty years, Linda has written articles and taught seminars through the lens of massage therapy. The common denominator for all her clients was the effects of stress that could be felt in the body. After her journey through her own heart issue, she looked for answers in research and soul-searching. She lives and works in Columbia, Maryland, with her husband Joe and finds deep joy in their roles as G Ma and Pop Pop to six grandkids who open their hearts to love and joy.
