My Review:
What a wonderful thing do wine down with at the end of my day. I have a hard time sleeping due to the fact that my mind races off in a million different directions.
When first received this I was like "YEAH!" Thumped thru the pages and just went nuts over all the different things and prompts that can help you focus on just relaxing and finding a way to wined down.
As said above in the synopsis, there is a years worth of prompts. And it is so true with in the 384 pages the creations are just amazing. Author Meera Lee Patel is a wonderful encourager, as well as an inspiration. Putting into a book that has helped me a many a night already, but also when my anxiety or my fibro. fog starts, I know that if I pick this book up it will help me to focus back to something I enjoy and my mind settles back so I can relax. There has not been much that has done that for me in quite awhile.
So for the reasons above I am giving this amazing book and author a Breath of Life Rating Of:
Five Clock Rating!!
