#Wardens2023 #ReadMyRoom #BookSpinBingo

Great concept & all but, imo more geared to people with houses or lots of extra space. Not very practical in an apartment so, there wasn‘t a lot of take away on this one for me.

DieAReader @Andrew65 ☺️It worked out to be perfect in length for the first 1/2 of my walk & that‘s exactly what I was hoping. The walk was great and definitely helped with that bad mojo. Excited to have a walking buddy that lives right next door😉❤️‍🔥 1y
CoverToCoverGirl Having a walking buddy is an awesome thing. It will help to keep you motivated. 1y

Picked this short one off the digital shelf for a multipurpose ‘self-care/blow off this bad mojo‘ walk I‘m gearing up to take shortly.

Andrew65 Hope the walk helps 🥰 (edited) 1y

I managed to squeeze one more short Audiobook into September. Turned out to be a good reading month. Busy but I squeezed a few pages in at every opportunity.

While there were many great ideas in the tagged book, some of it hinges on everyone in the home being on board with the plan. And how likely is that? Myself I would appreciate a book about making Sacred Spaces amongst the noise and the clutter of a realistic home.

britt_brooke Excellent month! 3y
TiredLibrarian I'd like to read the tagged book, but agree that guidance for making it work in the "real world" is sorely needed. 3y
Crinoline_Laphroaig @TiredLibrarian it's like that everyone take your shoes off at the door. Sounds great in theory but not at all doable on Saturday when the husband is in and out doing chores. 3y

Practicing mindfulness relaxes and invigorates me. Using some of these techniques in the classroom sets a gentle tone.
