Embrace: Calm in a Book

#CalminaBook #NetGalley

This book is divided into four sections. They are the Introduction, Feeling Calm, Feeling Mindful, and Feeling Centered. There is also a section at the end entitled Embracing Imperfection.

Inside these pages are many suggestions for self-care, something that many have to remember is important in the midst of busy lives. While some of the information/practices in these pages will not feel new, the gentle reminders to consider one’s self have merit.

In these pages, there are writing prompts, checklists and more. Spending time with these could well be helpful.

Throughout this title, there are peaceful illustrations. They enhance the text.

At the end of this book, readers will find a number of references cited.

Give this title a look if you want help in caring for yourself.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Clarkson Potter-Ten Speed Press for this title. All thoughts are my own.

I love to read, recommend books and open the world of reading to others. I tutor to ensure that the next generation of readers will know the joys of a good book because their reading skills have improved. I am an avid reader, especially of mysteries and fiction. I believe that two of the world's greatest inventions were the public library and eyeglasses!
