Customer Reviews

A book with many good suggestions

I try to slow down and relax and always look for books with this attitude. Maybe others need this book more than I. However, I found the book filled with some good suggestions and resources to check out. If you are looking at ways to incorporate a better quality of life then this may be one book to add among others to your shelf. Some people may not like that it doesn't take a total back to basics move towards simplicity. She suggests adding some small indulgences in your routine such as a cup of coffee or treats. Those who can't afford this approach may not see the value. However, other suggestions are inexpensive. Even if you don't incorporate many suggestions from the book, it is a thought starter to living a more balanced life.

Repair, rest, rejuventate....Food for your heart and soul

If you're like me and almost everyone I know, when asked what you would most like, the answer is an extra 12 hours a day. We're all overbooked and overcommitted,and forget to follow simple psychological and spiritual common sense: slow down, replinish the soul, repair ourselves and our souls. Filled with inspirational, common sense and psychologically sound advice, Pause inspires the reader to stop reading and do one of the multitude of good suggestions to get back to ourselves. Its a great book to read a small chapter at a time and let yourself follow your heart at the end of the chapter and do something that is kind to yourself and to the world. You will feel better fast.
