From Ayahuasca to Zen, Judith’s hilarious first-hand exploration of what works – and what seriously doesn't – in the wellness world.

Judith Lucy is on the mend.

In 2022, she shocked the world of comedy – and herself – by announcing that she was retiring from stand-up.

Interested in the world of wellness since she took up yoga in her early thirties, her plan was to write a fun guide to everything she's tried, from float tanks to meditating with a horse, so that she too could get a piece of that sweet wellness pie.

But then she got sick. In fact, she eventually realised that she was completely burnt out, gave up performing altogether, went on an ayahuasca retreat in the Amazon rainforest and moved back to her hometown of Perth.

WTF?

So as well as a book of all the remedies Judith has road-tested over twenty years, Well, Well, Well is also a record of her very real attempt to get over burnout and feeling like a used nappy. In among her tales of reiki, sound healing and cryotherapy is a clear-eyed examination of what had been so very wrong with how she (and a lot of us) had been living.

Relentlessly honest and devastatingly funny, Well, Well, Well might just make you feel better, too. It will most definitely make you wish that you knew a lot less about Judith's bowels.
