Almost every day I come across yet another book which I add to my wish list but what are the priorities? What are the classics that everyone talks about? Which recent releases have become… Continue reading My literary bucket list
Last weekend I set myself some goals and actions with my new Get Your Shit Together Journal*. So how did I do? Monday #1 This is an ongoing process.

They "raise awareness, provide tools and knowledge to help proactive recovery and challenge the stigma that prevents people reaching out for help". I've mentioned a couple of their tools before:… Continue reading Book review: The Self-Care Project by Jayne Hardy (Self-Care Sunday #38)
