Summary of Woman's Comfort Book: A Self-Nurturing Guide for Restoring Balance in Your Life
With over 200 prescriptions for giving yourself a break, this book helps the reader to sort out guilty feelings about self?nurture and to define her comfort/self?nurture needs.
In this book the author delivers a host of creative and comforting programmes like the self?care schedule, creative selfishness, creating a comfort network, body delights, a personal sanctuary, the comfort journal, bathing pleasures and comfort rituals. Organised by topic and cross?referenced throughout, this guidebook is designed to appeal to women of all ages. The new edition has been revised and updated for modern women.
If the pace of your life or depths of your depression leave you lacking in body and soul, this book can help you feel whole again. Jennifer Louden encourages you to assemble and draw on personal rituals, journals and sanctuaries that can add comfort and breathing space to your life. Some are obvious (herbal baths, flowers) or seem too silly, New Age, or time-consuming to tickle every fancy (blow bubbles in traffic jams, chant affirmations). Many more seem sublime and creative. But that's her point: pick and choose what works best for you, but do take some actions to make your life happier.
