Oh Libby, This Book Made Me Think of You sounds WONDERFUL! I can already sense it's going to make me cry 🤣

Switching off can be so tough, but I recently heard someone say they do their self-care/relaxation to "fill the cup that I pour from". I found that so profound and it made me look at relaxation in a whole new light. I hope it does the same for you!

Thank you so much! It is a tearjerker for sure, but hopefully uplifting too!

That's such a wonderful way of thinking about self-care - thank you for sharing!

This is a wonderful and very important post. I am one of those people who considers rest "a waste of time" in practice but not in theory, but implementing rest is so hard when I have so many irons in the fire and balls in the air. THANKS <3

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it. And I get it, I find it hard too! But I also find it makes such a difference to my health when I do make time to rest. Love the sound of T'ai Chi.

I found your email very interesting read, resting is something I struggle to do. I am feeling exhausted at the moment so I realise that resting would be the best thing for me, in order to recover. I have been trying to do more of my hobbies alongside resting so that I still feel like I'm doing something. Thank you for the reading recommendations, I will definitely check those out.

Looking forward to your new book even more after reading the synopsis ❤️

I'm glad you enjoyed it! I definitely think that hobbies count as rest. I find swimming and reading very restful. And I'm glad you like the sound of the new book!
