Goodreads asked Jaime James:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Jaime James I wrote Finding My Reasons to Breathe to help organize my personal thoughts and try and figure myself out.
I had hit a low and was contemplating suicide when I decided to try and save myself, from myself. I started keeping a daily journal, doing yoga, and meditating. After about 9 months I decided to start writing this book as a way to dive deeper into my thoughts and try to find patterns in my thinking. I found that certain topics brought up certain memories and I used those stories to help further my understanding and also, hopefully, give the reader more context.
