I was recently interviewed by Betsy Aimee from The Currently Podcast wherein I shared how books have helped me grow and deal with life's ups and downs. As an avid reader it took me awhile to narrow down my list. Here are the books that have impacted my life the most and I will never stop reading:
The Untethered Soul
The Gifts of Imperfection
The Bible
The Highly Sensitive Person
The Conscious Parent
You Can Heal Your Life
The Power of Positive Thinking
Start Where You Are
Ever since I was a little girl, books have been my escape. As an adult they have helped me understand my part in things. The Untethered Soul taught me to pay attention to my inner voice, The Bible reminds me I am loved as I am and The Conscious Parent helps me look within when I am having a parenting dilemma. I also included, Start Where You Are, which is a book and prompting journal. I find writing my honest thoughts in a journal or taking notes after I read these books is healing. I even keep a copy of the miniature version of The Power of Positive Thinking in my car for those unexpected waiting times. These are all books I have read, re-read and often recommend.
Please know books are not a substitute for human connection and/or therapy. There are times in our lives when a book is not enough and that's okay. Reach out to someone you love, and if necessary, reach out to a medical professional.
With that said, a good book at the right time can make a great impact on your life and realign your way of thinking. I would love to hear what books have impacted your life the most.
