A little book has recently come to my attention I feel all of us could get some benefit from, “Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before? Everyday Tools for Life’s Ups & Downs,” by Dr. Julie Smith.
Each and every day has it’s ups and downs, and they are hardly ever in balance. Dr. Julie’s book contains some amazingly simply, approachable, do-able ideas to help us navigate those segues, providing the firm rungs of a step-ladder in place of the frightening free-fall when a a bit of information, a situation, or our mind brings a down to our doorstep.
It’s a new year. In place of big, over-arching promises to become someone entirely different in the next 365 days, I propose taking small steps toward your perfectly wonderful authentic inner self. Heres how “Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before? is described by those who know what they’re talking about:
