Walking the Tightrope

The book is divided into three main sections in order to address the physical emotional and spiritual aspects all of us experience as a part of being human. Each section builds on the previous but also stands on its own. Section I helps you look at where you are now. You will assess your current life on the Wheel of Life in order to pinpoint your strengths and problem areas. As a working mom it becomes easy to see the microscopic day-to-day view of your life but much harder to see the macroscopic or whole. Often clients who have done this exercise will remark You know I've been so busy working that I forget that I need time to exercise or I keep working out at the gym and have forgotten that I need to spend some time praying too. In Section II you will learn positive ways to nurture both yourself and your family's health to help you perform at an optimum level. I consider this the building block to leading a balanced life because without good health little else matters. Without the energy to get out of bed in the morning you'll pay minimal attention to your emotional or spiritual needs let alone be able do a fair job at being a mom partner or employee. Section III provides ideas to help you manage your emotional health including simple ideas to stay sane as a parent how to manage your relationships with others and ideas for becoming more financially secure. Section IV targets the spiritual side of being a woman an area that often goes overlooked in the craziness of our lives. You'll learn ways to integrate and nurture your spirituality to lead a fuller more engaged and intuitive life.
