my thoughts:
Talk about the perfect book to de-stress with! Filled with fabulous quotes, soothing photos, and helpful tips; The Art of Calm is the go-to book for inspiring its readers to focus on finding balance amidst all of life's chaos. I absolutely loved it!
Lately, every day is filled with lists and lists of things that have to be done ASAP, leaving little to no breathing room for a ten-minute break. Its crazy and tiring! So, I was very excited to find myself with a quiet morning and this handy little tome to peruse over a nice cuppa. I flipped through the pages and got lost in the images of trees, the beach, seashells, and flowers. I read quotes by amazing and insightful figures like Louis May Alcott, Michelle Obama, Jane Austen, and Oprah Winfrey. And the tips scattered throughout were fun and thoughtful - there's even a recipe for brownies (Yum!). My favorite tip was, "Start every morning with beautiful words by subscribing to a daily poem online. It's food for the mind and the soul." Who doesn't want to wake up to beautiful words, right?
The Art of Calm turned out to be the perfect book to help remind me that I need to remember to spend a little time with myself now and again. So, I plan on carving out an hour each morning ( and I mean early morning ) to just read, write, and enjoy a nice cuppa while the rest of the worlds sleeps. I think it will be a great way to kick off the start to my days.
