This is a good little book to have beside the bed or a favorite chair. It is organized into brief one-page meditations, one per each day of the year and each introduced by a pertinent quotation from women of different ages, cultures, perspectives. There is wisdom, thoughtfulness built into your daily routine if you take the few minutes to pick this book up, read and reflect - a practice I am resolving today to resume. It has been some years since I bought this book at a Quaker conference and...more
It's not helping!! I meditate on the daily readings whilst rushing from one task to another. I somehow get the impression that this is not how it's meant to work. Maybe they will filter in slowly, or maybe I'll learn to be a sloth in October. I'm just one of those people whose lives have to be filled wi a thousand outstanding tasks just to get my arse out of a sling long enough to do one! Have an indolent centre. It's just having a hard time getting out!!! Will use the book as it's meant ...more
This is an ongoing read to remind me how to handle stress in my everyday life. It always me to step back and refuel, and ultimately cherish myself the way we are all meant to.
Excellent for every women, men too! Small doses of truth to help clear your head, and set you back on the path... Brilliant.
This is an "ok" mediatation book. I prefer my other two selections better, but it's a nice change from time to time.
I love this book! Every day it inspires me to be stronger,better...more creative.Hooray for meditations.

An on-going read. Speaks to me, reminds me to slow down and reminds me I can (should) make other choices.
A nice read that I keep at my bedside for morning or evening inspiration.
i read a page a day. good way to start/finish the day
I read it every year :)
I'm afraid it didn't take.
Food for thought.
this is a great book on daily thoughts for women. It doesn't matter how rushed you are, you can pick up this book and find the thought for the day. The advice is gentle and sometimes funny. It is also encouraging and reassuring.
I love to pick it up and spend a few moments reflecting on the thoughts and on me. A great pick-me-up book that helps the reader take a little time out from a very busy day!

This book was recommended to me by someone who knows I am always doing WAY to much. It is a great one a day, stop and pause to reflect on what is truely important in your very busy life.
Reading the daily meditations puts my life and my behaviors into a deeper perspectives. I become more aware of Life.
A nice "slow-down" sort of book that I am enjoying over breakfast everyday:-)
