A Resource of Strength This incredible book of daily readings has enabled me to handle many difficult and confusing situations which I encounter at my place of work and elsewhere in life. The book provides clear and simple knowledge about ways to “change our minds” and become mindful of the place of balance within each of us. Highly recommended.
I love this book. I read it every morning before I meditate. Mariechild chooses fascinating quotes from beautiful, wise women, then gives her own thoughts on the quote. Occasionally she is so deep, spiritual, and profound, that it goes a bit over my simple head. Still, every day, I get some rich message. The book was a gift from a friend, and now I’ve passed a copy onto another woman. Isn’t that how it should be?
Excellent Daily Reader This is an excellent daily reader for any woman wanting to become more spiritual-minded. I’ve used it for years! It will make a special gift for close friends.
