Synopsis

Themes like “I just don’t have time” and “I’m exhausted” rule our lives today. We are overbooked, overworked and overwhelmed. Just getting done what must be done fills our days. The notion of finding a precious hour or two to learn how to create balance, reduce our stress and discover an intentional life to soothe our aching souls is simply out of the question. Dr. Kathleen Hall’s new book, Alter Your Life: Overbooked? Overworked? Overwhelmed?, provides an alternative to the struggle to “make time” for renewal. In the breakthrough book readers will: • Discover how to overcome obstacles preventing you from living the intentional life of your dreams • Practice easy stress reduction techniques that deliver immediate results • Maximize the simple moments in your life to be the most rewarding • Enrich the quality of your life by achieving work-life balance We can discover how to live an intentional life in a manner that requires no doctrine, no memorization of a new vocabulary, no trekking off to distant holy lands. It does not require us to change our jobs, our lifestyle or transplant our personalities. It doesn’t even require any additional time. We can develop our own unique personal practices that can help us return “home” once we realize that we are out of balance. In time these practices will become an effortless and restorative part of living an intentional life of mental, physical and spiritual well-being. Alter Your Life: Overbooked? Overworked? Overwhelmed? offers tools to help you find your own unique choices that will bring greater balance to your demanding life. These simple effective tools, based on age-old, time-honored medical, psychological and spiritual knowledge and wisdom, will soon become second nature and bring with them a greater sense of ease and fulfillment.
