Rejuvenate!: It's Never Too Late

Ms. Eartha Kitt's beauty and longevity comes from her totally beautiful mind and spirit. In my opinion she holds her own among the greatest mystics of our time. She makes each moment and movement count and she is fully engaged in it. Ms. Kitt even inspires me to relish my housecleaning chores - she is an inspiration to anyone!

I wrote this review when the book came out... Peace Eartha 1927-2008 Who would not know that voice ... the sultry, spicy cat woman, the dancer, the singer, the international luminary, Eartha Kitt. Life wasn't handed to Ms. Kitt on a silver platter and dance became her plateau. She landed in Paris and built herself into the eminent performer. She is a life-passionate woman who willingly shares her wisdom with us. The longevity of Eartha Kitt's career is a testament to her endurance and stamina. And Eartha Kitt, now in her seventies, is still coming on strong. Her latest enterprise is a spiritual health book. Wonderfully conceived and written in conversational fashion about philosophy, beauty, fitness, anecdotes, history, and spiritual enlightenment, it's a sexy book of intriguing experiences, a journal, a workbook, and a book of humor all in one, with each of these ingredients sprinkled on for a delightful and quick read. The book is also wondrously illustrated in the unparalleled Eartha Kitt style. Rejuvenate is not only a read for those of the older set, but it is also for the teenager, the thirty somethings, or the aspiring entertainer. Through the Kahil Gibranesque walk through life that Kitt shares with us, shortcomings of nameless people are included with no holding back. I did wonder that if she was to meet me, a few of my blemishes might end up in a book of hers. Well that is the price to pay when you hobnob with a celebrity. But if this is of no controversy to you, you will be taken on a pleasant journey of life. Kitt challenges us to take care of ourselves and keep our spirit alive at any age.

This was a real steal, in great shape and of course Eartha Kitt can't be beat. Very pleased with this purchase.

This is one of 4 books written by Eartha Kitt and I highly recommend making it a reading project to read all of them. She is one amazing lady and the story of her childhood leaves you with your mouth open and in wonder at her strength and belief in self. This book touches on stories from all through her life along with basic but very solid advice on how to maintain good health. I got it from a library to read first, and it was so good that I bought it to have for reference and inspiration. Eartha is 85 as of now (8/07) and STILL doing shows from time to time at the Carlisle Hotel & Carnegie Hall in New York, and she was even in an off-Broadway play in 2007. She should be given the spotlight in many more venues, especially on TV, and someone should arrange a tribute. I clearly remember her on radio & TV when I was a little kid, but I had no idea about her background or how she got where she did. This woman is one of the most interesting and inspiring and strongest women I've ever known of. By the way, I think other straight White women should get a clue --Eartha belongs to everyone, but this icon needs more press and more appreciation!

This is a tremendously motivational book. She will show you what she does to keep in good health and shape both in mind and body.
