I picked up a book at the library that I thought might help me write my website. It's called "The Joy Diet" by Martha Beck.
The author's name seemed a little familiar and then I realised she wrote a wonderful book called "Expecting Adam" about her pregnancy of her 2nd child who had Downs Syndrome.
She is now a life coach, so having a feeling of already knowing her I decided to read the book.
She has a chatty style and gives a 10 step program to becoming more joyful.
I haven't read the whole book yet, but have bobbed around the chapters and note that creating connections with people demand a willingness to risk being hurt, and willingness to be truthful with yourself. I'm wondering about my not being a 'people person' and thinking that I need to do her 10 steps.
The first step she recommends is to do nothing. For at least 15 minutes each day. For only then, can we hear that still small voice within.
Sounds like good advice to me so I'm off to do nothing.
