A New Favorite Book


I came across the loveliest little book while browsing in Horan’s Health Food Store in Killarney.
“Mind Over Mountains” by Susan Fitzgerald  

Although a small book, about 80 pages in all, this little gem is packed with short, simple suggestions on how to find your inner joy

 There was so much I liked about the book as I skimmed through. There was a section on energy; the energy we put out into the world as well as that of the folks we are in contact with.

 I especially enjoyed when Susan proposed that we check in with our compasses rather than our clocks. We need to stand back every once in a while, she says and see where we are going, rather than how many activities we can pack into a day or a week.

She offers thoughts on how to de-clutter,
how to tell if we need to detox,
the benefits of eating soup ~ and soup recipes!

 I don’t want to give away everything that’s in the book but I’ll tell you this. I bought it and after reading it through to the end, it sits on my bedside table. Every once in a while I just open to any page and am reminded that there are many different ways to Be in this world.

O.K. let me give you just one more pearl from the book~

 One of the loveliest messages in Mind Over Mountains is that we all have a dream. How wonderful it would be, Susan says if we wore that dream on our face, like little children do.
 
Imagine going through life with that glow of knowing we have a dream and how~ by checking in from time to time with our mind, body and spirit, we too can find inner joy and make that dream come true.
