I recently found a book at our local Public Library that has been immensely helpful to me. It is called ” The Mindful Woman – gentle practices for restoring calm, finding balance and opening your heart” The author is Sue Patton Thoele.
It is easy to read, light hearted, meaningful and offers real options that work to remind me to keep breathing, stay with what is and gain peace of mind.
I hope to read more of Sue Thoele’s books.

I am finding your words as good as a book. I love that you wrote this almost 3 years ago and yet it is as fresh and real as if you had written it yesterday.
Thank you for reading lots of my blog posts and letting me know how much you have enjoyed them. I plan to read through your posts as time allows. We have much in common I suspect.
I hope so. I don’t get the opportunity to travel outside Christchurch very often so I am very interested in other NZ blogs.
I don’t travel too far either at the moment. You may like to check out “Ruth’s reflections” and “Seasonal Inspiration” off my blogroll. Ruth lives in Christchurch and Juliet lives up north but both are regular bloggers who I really enjoy.
Thanks for the tip.
You are very welcome.
