This work addresses the physical and mental health of women, particularly focusing on the crucial roles of wives and mothers in maintaining their own well-being and that of their children. Chavasse provides practical advice on topics such as diet, exercise, abstaining from stimulants, and early rising, all aimed at fostering a healthier lifestyle conducive to motherhood. The opening of the book presents a preamble to the author's guidance, where he acknowledges the alarming number of women suffering from health issues and barrenness. Chavasse emphasizes the importance of proactive health management and outlines several critical areas needing attention, including the impact of traditional societal norms on women's health. He criticizes the fashionable lifestyle of his time and urges young wives to adopt healthier habits, proposing that many ailments can be prevented or improved through simple lifestyle changes. The introductory chapter serves as a clarion call for women to value their health in order to fulfill their roles as nurturing mothers.
