Description

"Saving Myself: A Journey into Wellness..." is empowering. Each entry provides unique opportunities for people to take control of their thoughts, reactions, and emotions. It connects the writer through thought and process by creating a safe place to identify and examine situations, relationships, and their impact. It is used by all ages, as a personal reflection tool, allowing for calm, rational contemplation during times of stress. It is also used as a beginner's staple for those needing a place to start as they aspire to master the art of the skilled communicator.
There is an additional, yet unexpected, but incredible bonus, during these complicated times. The journals are being used to record information that is shared with health care professionals, by those who need to monitor their activities and feelings in real time, or over a period of time.
It also provides positive self-affirming statements to help people see the goodness and light in themselves.
