Just such a gem! 365 days of a few sentences that are making me laught of how much i do all the time, while i find myself reading it in a rush over the counter in the kitchen. Then i stop and breath and think wow gamechsnger wbery quote. Will buy more

so necessary, going to give this to all of the women in my life. simple, digestible ways to improve my daily life.

So, I usually don't write reviews of anything, but I wanted to write something this time mainly because of what this book has already done for me (and I just got it this afternoon). For most of my life, I've been an anxious person- I take on way too much responsibility even when the responsibility isn't mine to take and I put a lot of pressure on myself to be "perfect". Recently though, I've started working on it with a therapist because my phobias started getting a little out of control and she recommended that I try out this book. Because I'm sure so many other women out there have more responsibilities than I do (I'm 23 and I live with my parents though I work full time), I was a little hesitant to try it, but I'm so glad I did. Honestly, there's not much that keeps me calm anymore, but from the second I opened this book, I felt a little less of the pressure that's become normal for me. Even though I usually don't do this sort of thing, especially with something so deeply personal, I wanted to say a huge thank you to this author (if she ever sees it). I'm an aspiring novelist and I know how much it means to me when someone says my writing has touched them. So thank you so much for putting this book together- I already know that it's going to help me beat my anxiety!

Highly recommend this book! It hits me right between the eyes every time I read it. At first, when I was given this book, I thought yeah, right, it'll probably not be that powerful. Every time, it blows me away. It has effective and strong solutions. It digs deep into what makes me “do so much”. Work so hard. And take-on the attitude of, “if it's gotta be, it's up to me”.

Have had this book for years, this is second one I have purchased for a gift, great for women.

I am an over-producing, stressed-out Mom and business owner. And I found I was taking out my stress on the people that deserve it least--my family and me. I needed to change for all of us. I received this as a gift a long time ago, and just didn't get around to opening it. Then for the new decade I decided to make time for myself (nearly) everyday to get on my yoga mat, or any quiet spot, and take a few minutes to listen to my mind and body.On January 1st I opened to the first entry. Almost every entry gives me pause, and I think about what i throughout the day. The meditations bring me into a calm place, and make me be very honest with myself. Sometimes so honest I know I am not ready for it and I hope next year when I re-read it I will be ready to that honest and forward.Very, very good book. I am learning to talk from my heart space.

While visiting a friend, I started reading this book every evening. I loved the thought that there was a book written for women who do too much. Don't we all do too much? This is easy to read because there are quick page messages.They have written it to address the feelings that we share on a daily basis. You will appreciate the messages and it makes a great gift, too.

I've been reading and re-rereading these daily meditations for years. Bought an extra one to put in our cabin outhouse.

Have loved this book for years. I used to keep a hard copy by my bed, until it fell apart. Now I have it on Kindle, I can take its wisdom wherever I go. It saves me over & over.

This book was recommended to me by a colleague who has 2 of her own children, 7 step children, and is the household higher earner - hello!!!! The book does exactly was it says on the tin .......... provides meditations and words of wisdom for women who do too much. Nice to have a little daily "pick me up" that's thought provoking.

My original copy fell to bits through much use. Have bought copies for friends and would recommend this book as being something to be kept by your bedside always, so you can start the day slowly.No matter what the pressures of the day, finding time to read and digest each days meditation allows for precious 'ME' time before looking after everyone else.

Lovely book good present too for several friends

If you are like me and can answer yes then get this book! This author manages to make me laugh at my (often) unmanageable life and never fails to remind me that perfectionism should have no place in my life. Love it!
