LIVE LIFE YUMMIE: A Delicious Rebellion

A Cultural, Lifestyle & Wellbeing Manifesto for Modern Life, and a modern wellbeing book for people living in a hyperconnected world.

What if living well was meant to feel good?

In a world shaped by speed, optimisation and constant digital noise, many of us feel busy, distracted and quietly disconnected from our bodies, our relationships and the everyday moments that make life feel meaningful.

Live Life Yummie is not a diet book.
It is not a recipe book.
It is not about rules, restriction or perfection.

This book is a cultural, lifestyle and wellbeing manifesto, and a blueprint for living well inside modern life.

Drawing on insights from cyberpsychology, wellbeing, research and lived experience, Rani Sheilagh explores how food, pleasure, connection, everyday rituals and technology shape how we live, think and feel today,

This book offers a human way of living well in a digital world without rejecting modern life.

What This Book Is About

A Manifesto for Modern Living. You won’t find quick fixes or formulas here.

Instead, this book asks a simple but important question:

What if living well was meant to feel good?

Live Life Yummie challenges outdated stories that say joy must be earned, rest must be justified or wellness should feel like hard work.

This is a book for people who want to feel more alive, not more optimised.

Food as Culture, Connection & Meaning

Food is not just fuel. It is memory, meaning, culture and connection.

Food is a golden thread that runs through how we celebrate, gather and show up in our lives.

The Yummietarian way honours food as a lived experience, not a performance.

Technology, Attention & Presence

This book meets modern life where it’s lived, in a hyperconnected world. It explores how technology shapes attention, identity and connection, and shows how to use digital life with awareness, intention and care.

The Yummietarian Blueprint

At the heart of the book is a simple yet transformative set of anchors that help you live with more clarity, presence and joy:

Permission. Presence. Play. Pleasure. Power.

These are not rules.

They are reminders, and quiet acts of rebellion against perfectionism, guilt and hustle culture.

Who This Book Is For

Live Life Yummie is for you if you:

• want more joy, presence and connection in everyday life
• feel tired of optimisation culture and performance wellness
• want a healthier relationship with food and pleasure
• feel overwhelmed or burnt out in a digital world and everyday living
• value meaning, simplicity and human connection

What This Book Is Not

x Not a diet plan
x Not a recipe collection
x Not a rigid programme
x Not anti-technology
x Not about fixing yourself

Live Life Yummie invites you to live well in the world you already inhabit.

Why This Book Matters Now

In today’s hyperconnected culture, wellbeing is not about doing more.

It is about feeling more.

Presence over pressure, Savouring over rushing and
Connection over comparison.

Live Life Yummie offers a grounded, research-informed and culturally aware approach to modern living, one that feels rooted in real life rather than idealised fantasy.

Live Life Yummie invites you to:

• choose pleasure without guilt

• lean into presence without pressure
