Help Me!: 12 Wege zur Erleuchtung | Marianne Power

I turned in section 1 of my dissertation to my SME for review, so I get a night to read for fun… I finished the last Witcher book I was reading, now I can‘t decide. Do I move on to the next (Blood of Elves) or choose something else?! This is what I brought with me to the mountains. (In a Dark, Dark Wood is a re-read) Help?!

DGRachel I thought this one was delightful.

Adult Survivors of Emotionally Abusive Parents: How to Heal, Cultivate Emotional Resilience, and Build the Life and Love You Deserve | Sherrie Campbell

so-so

I don't have a lot to say about this one, but I did learn some new things. I understand the perspective of the parent a bit better now. Reading this book was healing for me, so i definitely recommend it to others in their healing journey. By the end I was kind of finished with reading it because I didn't connect with the end as much as I did the beginning and middle.

Rushing Woman's Syndrome: The Impact of a Never-Ending To-Do List and How to Stay Healthy in Today's Busy World | Libby Weaver

Oh dear, I think we might have a problem here.
She's talking about the SNS and PNS (sympathetic and para-sympathetic nervous systems) except it sounds like she is saying "penis", which results in startling clauses such as "women with a dominant penis...". And it comes up a lot! (Oh God, now even that innocuous sentence is loaded with Freudian subtext! ?)

I really like the last one. Good enough is perfect.

Sparklemn I love this! Thanks for sharing. 2w

Deblovestoread I love “resetting”. I reset a few kitchen cupboards yesterday. 😀 2w

AmyG This is great. 2w

lil1inblue This book is so simple, yet it was a lifesaver when I was dealing with an illness for several years. I cannot recommend it often enough! 2w

GingerAntics I‘m loving “good enough is perfect.” 2w

Care tasks are morally neutral. Being good or bad at them has nothing to do with being a good person, parent, man, woman, spouse, friend. Literally nothing. You are not a failure because you can‘t keep up with laundry. Laundry is morally neutral.

TheBookHippie So necessary to learn. 2w

Thanks for giving me grace to sit and read rather than thinking as I sit, “I should be doing this ...“ 2w

triplem80 I really appreciated this book...it enabled me to give myself grace, which can be so hard to do! 2w

MommyWantsToReadHerBook Love this! 2w

GingerAntics I‘m seeing a lot of things that for some reason, by some crazy people, have been assigned moral value when they are not moral issues at all. Can we stop that? Who are these people? They are hurting everyone and ruining everything. 2w

Brave, Not Perfect: Fear Less, Fail More, and Live Bolder | Reshma Saujani

bailed

I spent over an hour on social media, avoiding this book. When I returned to it, I still just didn‘t care. I just wanted it to be over. Then I realised, I could make it be over right now. So, it‘s over. It‘s not for me. It might be for you. I don‘t know. Maybe it would be for me at a different time. That time is not now, though.

Brave, Not Perfect: Fear Less, Fail More, and Live Bolder | Reshma Saujani

Ugh, can we stop with this BS?! This is doing just as much damage, especially to girls, as the “grit” fad before it. It blames YOU if you fail, never the person teaching you or a source being unclear. You failed, it‘s on you. Try harder. 🙄 This is damaging to girls. It‘s damaging to minorities. Can we just stop this? It breaks my heart that a minority woman trying to encourage women and girls is perpetuating this absolute nonsense.
