YOUR BOOK BEGINNING
Sorry for the late Linky!
MY BOOK BEGINNING
How do you define "self-care"? To me, self-care is finding out who you are and what is important to you, regardless of what that is, and being at peace with yourself.
-- Little Book of Self-Care by Della Rae. Della is a radio host, lecturer, and author who has been actively involved with several non-profit organizations, including World Pulse, a global network connecting women through digital media.
Della believes we must take the very best care of ourselves all of the time and everywhere we go. Her Little Book of Self-Care offers refreshingly honest advice and personal insight to help achieve a healthy self.
Sounds like an interesting and informative book.
ReplyDeleteBy the way -- no linky?
This does sound good....where is Linky?
