Mindfulness in Reading: Meditations on Words & Wisdom by Ella Berthoud

US pub date - 11/5/24

Reading has long been a meditative experience for me and when I saw this title, I knew I wanted to read it.  I really wanted to love this book but much of it didn’t work for me and I found this to very much be a ‘take what you like and leave the rest’ book.

I hope other readers enjoy this more. 

Thank you to Leaping Hare Press and NetGalley for the temporary PDF

On the plane they say to put the oxygen mask on yourself first then help others. The idea is so that you can function adequately and only then will you be of help to others. The same principle applies for everyday life.

This has been an amazing year and I’m so glad so many people have joined me on this journey to a healthy lifestyle! This week I will have the chance to share our program with someone seeking better health. I will NOT tell them they need to make a change, and I will NOT pressure them to change their life or think negatively about who they are. I WILL offer the opportunity to feel better and live better within the goals of the person- not my goals for them! This isn't a shake program. This isn't a sale. This isn't a supplement. This isn’t even just about weight loss! That’s only the tip of the Optavia iceberg! This IS about changing your habits for true transformation in mind, body and finances! Many people might be looking for a quick fix diet, but that’s not what this is. I love to partner with friends who ARE ready to change their WHOLE lives and to watch them achieve THEIR GOALS. Do I believe you should have goals for better health? Yes! Do I believe you are a terrible person if you don’t? OF COURSE NOT! But I’m here to help just like someone helped me. Not ready?... that's ok! No pressure here..... but WHEN you ARE ready for true change...fasten your seatbelts, it’s going to be an amazing ride.😉 If you are ready then MESSAGE ME TODAY! And if you are still reading, thank you for hearing me out and letting me share my passion! Please click on one of those cute emoji buttons or feel free to share this post! Thanks!❤️ #healthcoach #optimalhealth #lifelongtransformationonehealthyhabitatatime #healthmindandbody #healthandwellness #itsnotadiet #healthjourney #whatareyouwaitingfor #BetterTogether

It’s a known fact that regular exercise has health benefits, such as strengthening of the heart and bones, muscles, weight management, and decreasing the risk of some diseases. Researchers have discovered how a single moderate exercise session can serve as an anti-inflammatory as well. The results have significant promise for treating chronic diseases such as […]

“Expect to encounter adversity in your life, remembering that you live in a deeply fallen world. Stop trying to find a way that circumvents difficulties.” – Sarah Young Serve the Lord with gladness, come before His presence with singing. – Psalm 100:2 When I realized that pastoral ministry was not for me and that we are all called to some sort of mission, life began to change for me.

Cosmic Self-Care: Spiritual Rituals for Modern Mystics by Katie Huang, illustrations by Phe Johnson 

US pub date - 10/8/24

With wonderful, vibrantly colored illustrations and mindful self-care rituals, Cosmic Self-Care is terrific. There’s a lot in here; I really liked many of the seasonal rituals and have put some dates on my calendar of specific ones I’d like to add to my life. 

I got a lot from this book. 

This is one I’ll be getting for my own bookshelf and it’s a recommendation from me for anyone looking to embrace some new self-care practices. 

Thank you to Leaping Hare Press and NetGalley for the PDF

Sea Magick: Connect with the Ocean through Folklore and Magickal Traditions by Rieka Moonsong 

US pub date - 10/8/24

I grew up on the ocean and took it for granted. Now that I no longer live near the ocean, it lures me home like a siren song - I need to smell the ocean air, hear the waves, feel the ocean wind chill me, and I’m often wondering when I can get back. 

This book was wonderful to read - beautifully illustrated (that cover ❤️) and laid out on soothing blue watercolor, it’s aesthetically a joy to peruse. Beyond the looks, there’s folklore, meditations, and spells. 

I enjoyed this a lot while also finding it be a take what you choose and disregard the rest book. Much of it wasn’t for me personally, but what was worked well. 

I think the book should come with links to access recorded meditations from the book.

Generation M: Living Well in Perimenopause and Menopause by Jessica Shepherd

US pub date - 10/1/24

Growing up, menopause was a word I rarely heard. Maybe  once or twice until I started my own perimenopausal journey, during which I thought I was going crazy, until I pieced together symptoms with the aid of Cleveland clinic and healthline. When I brought it up to my doctor, she said “HRT” and nothing else. After reading more about it I decided that it’s not something I’m personally interested in, at this time. Her lack of further response on alternate treatments irked and I took to google and reading books.

Nearing the end (hopefully) of my not-always-easy perimenopausal journey (perimenopause during a global pandemic in the midst of an utter shitshow presidency (old orange) has been decidedly very un-fun) - I was grateful to receive an early copy and I found Generation M to be a realistic and extremely helpful resource; I personally really and truly appreciated the time spent discussing non-HRT methods of dealing with symptoms (I will attest to the meditation and mindfulness) - I found a few I currently do and learned about a few new techniques that I’m interested in learning more about. 

An excellent choice for the perimenopausal, or encroaching on it, who would prefer a more holistic approach. 

I felt seen and grateful while I read Generation M - this is a title I’d gift to another person facing perimenopause.

The Great Menopause Myth: The Truth on Mastering Midlife Hormonal Mayhem, Beating Uncomfortable Symptoms, and Aging to Thrive by Kristin Johnson; Maria Claps

US pub date - 9/10/24

What worked - 

*non-HRT suggestions provided (if with judgment) 

What didn’t - 

*not remotely vegan friendly 

*the authors really push HRT - and make it seem like the only reason not to is when one medically cannot - not everyone wants HRT 

*not everyone who menstruates and goes through perimenopause is a woman 

This wasn’t one of the better books I’ve read on the topic of menopause and if you’re not interested in hormonal therapy, this isn’t a book I’d recommend.

Laid out with soothing gradient sunset colors backgrounds and an easy to read font, the meditations are lovely bits to reflect on. The appearance of each page is uncluttered and easy to focus on your day of choice while the reflections give one positive messages to focus on and carry forth.
