Teri Hatcher: In terms of taking care of yourself, I recommend a number of things that I do myself; from something as simple as taking a hot bath at night after the kids are in bed, to a trick that I know and love: if you've found that you haven't been able to finish a bottle of wine, instead of throwing it away you can keep that wine and put it in your bathtub.

Bethanne Patrick: Really?

Teri Hatcher: Wine has a natural skin softener and exfoliant in it, and it just makes you feel luxurious. And it has that coupon-esque, 'I didn't waste anything,' recycling feel to it. So in a lot of ways it's a really great, tiny little trick to take care of yourself.

Another trick is: I never used to be a person that took a lot of time with creams on my body or my face -- I'm a fairly low maintenance, 'throw on jeans and run out of the house' kind of girl. But I do find that if you take a ritual with your face -- or whether it's massaging in a cream on your face or on your legs or your body -- it isn't so much what that cream claims to do.

Bethanne Patrick: It's taking that time.

Teri Hatcher: Exactly. The important point is that you're taking even one minute to say, 'I'm special enough today to take this one minute to make my skin feel good.' Those are the things that we should find throughout the day to take better care of ourselves. And there's a lot of that in the book. And at the end of the day you will find yourself a little bit happier and feeling that the small moments of your life have added up to something that you want.

And there are bigger ideas. I've enrolled myself in a class called 'The S Factor' by Sheila Kelley, which is an exercise program that revolves around stripper workouts. I have to tell you, I have never found an exercise that is more emotionally freeing and strengthening at the same time as being muscularly freeing and strengthening. It really allows you to identify yourself sexually without the reflection of a man.
