Czego możemy nauczyć się dzięki byciu rodzicem i samoakceptacji? Jaką moc mają
dobre słowa kierowane do samego siebie? Autorka bestsellerowej serii dla
dzieci „Ja. Uważność i emocje”, specjalistka od jogi i uważności, tym razem
wraca z poruszającą i wzmacniającą książką dla dorosłych czytelników i
czytelniczek. Przez dziesięciolecia Susan Verde zmagała się ze swoim
wewnętrznym krytykiem, głosem, który mówił jej, że nie jest wystarczająca.
Joga, medytacja i praktyki uważności stały się jej sposobem na wyciszenie tego
głosu. Jednak kiedy została mamą, wewnętrzny krytyk stał się głośniejszy niż
kiedykolwiek. Macierzyństwo okazało się ostatecznym sprawdzianem jej praktyki.
Z humorem, sercem i rozbrajającą wrażliwością Verde dzieli się historiami ze
swojego życia jako matki, córki, człowieka i osoby uzależnionej od kawy.
Ujawnia swoje błędy i największe chwile radości – od wspierania jednego ze
swoich dzieci w walce o zdrowie psychiczne przez utratę ojca i odnowienie
więzi z matką do ogromnej dumy, ale i bólu, związanego z przygotowaniami do
wysłania trójki nastolatków na studia i zmierzenia się z pustym gniazdem. W
książkę Jedno miłe słowo autorka wplata mantry wspierające rozmowę ze sobą z
czułością i łagodnością. Uczy nas – i siebie - słuchać głosu, który mówi nam,
że jesteśmy wystarczający. I tego, jak sprawić, aby słowa pełne miłości stały
się naszą historią.
