The Extremely Busy Woman's Guide to Self-Care: Do Less, Achieve More, and Live the Life You Want

Written by Suzanne Falter

Narrated by Suzanne Falter

Close your eyes. Take a deep breath. Imagine your perfect day.
What if that perfect day was every day?

You're probably doing a lot―taking care of your family, killing it at your job, volunteering, organizing, scheduling, delegating. At the end of all of that, do you have any time or energy left to take care of the most important person: you?

Self-care movement leader Suzanne Falter gets it. In fact, she lived the life that every woman today feels expected to lead, chasing career goals while balancing the commitment of raising a family. But after facing an unthinkable tragedy, Suzanne transformed her identity as a stressed-out workaholic to find her way back to wholeness and balance. In The Extremely Busy Woman's Guide to Self-Care, Suzanne shares simple, bite-sized suggestions to help you ease onto the path of effective self-care in a way that feels doable rather than demanding.

The road to soothing self-care is right in front of you―all you have to do is say yes to the journey and take the first step.

[Noeleen Lang · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I needed this excellent read I enjoyed the practice pause and the breathing exercises throughout the book.
I enjoyed the Teals journal and how much writing this book ment to the author I liked the visualization when she describes her Sanfracisco scene at the beginning. (I live in the bay area) I will make Self-care my no.1 priority and add into my life.
