Ann Law Announces National Book Tour for The Law of Wellness Following Amazon #1 Best Seller Debut

While most Blockislanders know Ann as the owner of The Blue Dory Inn and Avonlea Inn, her past career as a Family Nurse Practitioner in a small town in NY has come full circle.  In trying to support a significant other to prevent a future heart attack Ann took a deep dive into prevention strategies.  After the cardiologist’s only recommendations were more statins and anti-inflammatory drugs, Ann researched other ways to prevent an impending negative cardiac event focusing on diet and exercise.   Her deep research was so convincing, she wanted to share it so others could benefit as well.
This effort resulted in The Law Wellness, a comprehensive guide to achieve ideal weight and lifetime health.  Ann explains how food, fitness and mindset principles followed can result in lifetime health and the prevention of most of our chronic illnesses such as all forms of heart disease, type II diabetes and many forms of cancer. 
The national book tour will celebrate her new title, The Law of Wellness, which achieved #1 Best Seller status on Amazon in August 2025, one week after release. The tour will launch with a book signing and author conversation at The Island Free Library, 9 Dodge St., Block Island, RI, on Saturday, October 11, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. (refreshments served). The book tour coincides with the announcement of the first Law of Wellness Retreat, hosted by Law which will be held on October 24–27, 2025 at the historic Blue Dory Inn on Block Island.
“Readers don’t need another trend—they need a reliable framework,” said Law. “The Law of Wellness is intentionally practical, usable, and supported by the American Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics as well as the Cardiology Association, the Diabetes Association and Kaiser Permanente. The retreat is an” invitation to turn insight into daily practice, one decision at a time.”
A Credible Framework in a Noisy Wellness Landscape
At a time when wellness advice often swings between extremes, The Law of Wellness offers a steady, evidence-informed foundation. Law’s approach centers on 3 compounding pillars—Food, Fitness, and Mindset—organized into a cohesive system readers can adopt without overwhelm.

Clarity over clutter: The book strips away contradictory guidance and reduces decision fatigue.
Daily decisions made simple: Tools transform best intentions into repeatable routines.
Designed for real life: No gimmicks, no shame—just clear next steps that compound.
Built to last: A focus on continuity over intensity creates sustainable results.

“Ann Law writes like a trusted advisor,” noted the book’s publisher. “She pairs credible principles with humane delivery, which is exactly what readers—and organizations—need to make change stick.”   Ann’s editor, Barbara Bowen, in a testimonial wrote: “I was hired to edit The Law of Wellness and expected it to be just another book edit, instead, it changed my life.”
What Readers Can Expect at the Block Island Kickoff
The October 11 launch event on Block Island is designed as an intimate, high-value experience for readers, residents, and visitors alike.

Format: Curated author talk, audience Q&A, and signing (books available on site)
When: Saturday, October 11, 2025, 2:00 p.m.
Where: The Island Free Library, 9 Dodge St., Block Island, RI
Details: Refreshments served; seating first-come, first-served
“Launching at The Island Free Library is intentional,” Law added. “Block Island’s spirit—nature, community, and simplicity—reflects the heart of this work.”

Additional tour cities and dates will be announced in the coming weeks.
From Page to Practice: The Law of Wellness Retreat (Oct 24–27)
To help readers implement the book’s framework, Law will lead a four-day Law of Wellness Retreat from Friday, October 24 through Monday, October 27, 2025, at the Blue Dory Inn, a beloved Victorian inn steps from the beach.
Retreat program highlights include:

A lifetime food plan that provides all the valuable nutrients necessary to provide weight loss and weight maintenance
A fitness routine that opens the door to lifetime flexibility, strength and cardiovascular health
A toolbox of mindset principles to achieve any goal on a dream board
A comprehensive health assessment based on health history and lab results.
Lifetime support and encouragement.
Accountability circles: Small-group coaching that builds consistency, confidence, and momentum.

“Transformation is less about intensity than continuity,” Law said. “The retreat gives participants both structure and support—so they leave with a plan they can actually live.”

Vincent Virga, CEO and Financial Adviser of PFS Wealth Management Group, on Tax-Efficient Investing in 2025: Strategic Moves for High-Net-Worth Investors

Turning Market Challenges into Tax-Smart Opportunities in 2025—Now with New Rules Under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act
As key provisions from prior tax law were reshaped by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025 (H.R. 1)—signed into law on July 4, 2025—high-net-worth investors face a pivotal moment to rethink multi-year tax strategy.

(Congress.gov)
In this evolving landscape, wealth managers and tax advisors are emphasizing coordinated, multi-year plans that reduce tax drag while advancing long-term goals. For HNW families, the combination of persistent market volatility and significant statutory changes makes tax efficiency an essential part of portfolio construction in 2025–2026. (ADP)
Upcoming PFS Wealth Management Group EventPFS Wealth Management Group will host an in-depth session to help investors understand how the new law interacts with portfolio design, income strategy, and legacy planning. Attendees will leave with practical ways to reduce tax drag, optimize asset location, and integrate tax planning with investment decisions in light of the latest guidance. (IRS)

Senior deduction coordination: For clients 65+, an added deduction (income-tested) through 2028—and how to model it alongside RMDs, Social Security timing, and muni income. (IRS)
Core portfolio levers:Auditing and reducing tax drag (harvesting discipline, holding period management, futures overlays).• Asset location: placing tax-inefficient assets in tax-advantaged accounts; pairing direct indexing with charitable gifting to recycle basis.• SMAs, direct indexing, and QOZs for targeted exposure and loss/basis engineering. (ADP)

“I’m excited to lead this discussion because every potential percentage point saved in taxes lets your returns work harder,” said Vincent Virga, Founder & CEO, PFS Wealth Management Group. “With the 2025 tax landscape shifting under the One Big Beautiful Bill, preparing now can create advantages that compound for years—not just this year.” (IRS)

Ethan Heisey, CEO of Exponential Freedom, Interviewed on the Influential Entrepreneurs Podcast Discussing Legal Tax Reduction for High-Net-Worth Individuals

Ethan Heisey discussing legal tax reduction for high-net-worth individuals 
Listen to the interview on the Business Innovators Radio Network: https://businessinnovatorsradio.com/interview-with-ethan-heisey-ceo-of-exponential-freedom-discussing-legal-tax-reduction-for-high-net-worth-individuals/
Ethan Heisey, the CEO of Exponential Freedom. Delved into the important topic of navigating legal tax reduction strategies specifically tailored for high-net-worth individuals. 
Ethan began by defining what constitutes a high net worth individual, typically someone earning $400,000 or more annually, which often results in significant tax liabilities. He emphasized the importance of working with tax professionals who can provide strategic advice rather than just filing taxes, as many CPAs may not be equipped to offer advanced tax mitigation strategies. 
Legal Tax Strategies 

 Tax-Deferred Accounts: Wealthy individuals can maximize contributions to tax-deferred accounts such as 401(k)s and IRAs. These accounts allow individuals to postpone taxes on their earnings until retirement, when they may be in a lower tax bracket. Additionally, high-net-worth individuals can explore options like defined benefit plans, which can offer even larger tax-deferred contributions based on income and age. 
Capital Gains Management: HNWIs often have substantial investments in stocks, real estate, and other assets. By strategically managing capital gains, such as holding investments for longer than a year to benefit from lower long-term capital gains tax rates, wealthy individuals can significantly reduce their tax liabilities. Furthermore, utilizing tax-loss harvesting—selling underperforming investments to offset gains—can be an effective strategy for minimizing taxes. 
Charitable Contributions: Philanthropy not only serves a noble cause but also provides a powerful tax strategy. High-net-worth individuals can make charitable donations to qualified organizations, which are tax-deductible. Additionally, by establishing donor-advised funds or charitable remainder trusts, individuals can manage their charitable giving while receiving immediate tax benefits. 
Real Estate Investments: Wealthy individuals can take advantage of various tax benefits associated with real estate investments. The depreciation of property can be used to offset rental income, and 1031 exchanges allow investors to defer capital gains taxes when selling one investment property and purchasing another. This strategy can lead to significant tax savings while enabling continued investment growth. 
Estate Planning: Effective estate planning is vital for high-net-worth individuals looking to minimize estate taxes. Strategies such as establishing irrevocable trusts can remove assets from an individual’s taxable estate, reducing potential estate tax liabilities. Additionally, gifting strategies allow individuals to transfer wealth to heirs while taking advantage of annual gift tax exclusions. 
Tax Credits and Incentives: Wealthy individuals should be aware of various tax credits and incentives available at both federal and state levels. For instance, investing in renewable energy projects or low-income housing can provide substantial tax credits that reduce overall tax liabilities. 

In conclusion, high-net-worth individuals have access to a range of legal tax strategies that can help them reduce their tax liabilities and preserve their wealth. By leveraging tax-deferred accounts, managing capital gains, making charitable contributions, investing in real estate, engaging in effective estate planning, and utilizing available tax credits, wealthy individuals can significantly enhance their financial well-being. However, it is essential to approach these strategies with a focus on legality and compliance, ensuring that they are guided by knowledgeable professionals in the field. By doing so, high-net-worth individuals can navigate the complexities of tax reduction effectively and confidently. 
 
Ethan shared: “We help clients save at least 25% in taxes, or they don’t pay! Exponential Freedom helps high-net-worth individuals save money on Taxes and grow their net worth.”
