Simple Abundance
Simple Abundance: A Daybook of Comfort of Joy | Sarah Ban Breathnach
With the grace of Anne Morrow Lindbergh's Gift from the Sea and the wisdom of M. Scott Peck's The Road Less Traveled, Simple Abundance is a book of 366 evocative essays-one for every day of your year-written for women who wish to live by their own lights. In the past a woman's spirituality has been separated from her lifestyle. Simple Abundance shows you how your daily life can be an expression of your authentic self ... as you choose the tastiest vegetables from your garden, search for treasures at flea markets, establish a sacred space in your home for meditation, and follow the rhythm of the seasons and the year. Here, for the first time, the mystical alchemy of style and Spirit is celebrated. Every day, your own true path leads you to a happier, more fulfilling and contented way of life-the state of grace known as... Embrace its gentle lessons, savor its sublime common sense, dare to live its passionate truth, and share its extraordinary and exhilarating gift with every woman you encounter: the authentic self is the Soul made visible.

When you sense that you‘re #offbalance, it‘s nice to come back to center and seek equilibrium

When I looked at my “reading” list on Litsy, I saw that this one was still there. This is a book of daily essays written for women (although I think anyone would appreciate its gentle message ). It is an old friend that I dipped in and out over the years, but 2018 was the first time that I read it in its entirety. Somewhat dated, but the encouragement to live each day to the fullest will always ring true.

#QuotsyMay18 #yesterday

A friend gave me this book years ago and I keep thinking I need to go back and read each day's 'lesson' as there are some beautiful inspiring words and ideas in it. Like this one from January about thinking about the good and not letting yesterday and the past negatively impact today.🌸

Caroline2 That‘s really lovely! 😊 6y
Godmotherx5 Gosh, I wonder what happened to my copy 🤷🏻‍♀️ 6y
AmyG This is a lovely book. I have it packed, but I look through it every once in a while. 6y

I have had this book for a very long time. And returned to it many times for inspiration over the years. I do remember adding quite a few books to my TBR when I first read it. 😉Starting once again.

jillannjohn I read this years ago. I wish I could find my copy! 6y
DivineDiana @jillannjohn Now that it is once again on your radar, it just might magically show up! Here‘s hoping! 📚 6y
Graciouswarriorprincess I started it again on the first for the new year. 6y
DivineDiana @Graciouswarriorprincess 👏🏻 I thought about it after the fact and am catching up to today‘s date! 😉💗 6y
