This book really helps me on my journaling journey. I appreciate all of Jan's anecdotes that I could relate too. It sounded like she was writing about me, which I will think anyone who reads this book may also find. Jan has a real sense of how we can go inward and "come home to ourselves" through journaling. I love the stories as well as the blank pages with the wonderful quotes that gets the creative process flowing. I appreciate the "tools" this book provides for my journey through life as well as my journaling process. A great gift for anyone going down a similar path.
A Reawakening
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
For thousands of years, woman has been the primary caregiver, not only to her children but to everyone in her world as wife, daughter, sister, neighbor and friend. We were taught to suppress our own needs in order to have more to give to others. In Coming Home to Ourselves, we discover that in fact the opposite is true. When we give from a place of emptiness we just become more empty. We must first create and maintain a reservoir of love and life energy from which to draw. Then we can give to others with joy and love, from a place of abundance. Jan Forrest shows us that by making small changes in our daily lives we can find the time to reawaken the spirit of joy within by giving ourselves the gift of ourselves.

Jan Forrest's recent book, Coming Home to Ourselves: A Woman's Journey to Wholeness has helped me to begin again with a journey I began twenty years ago. No matter where a woman is on her own "spiritual journey," this book can help to remotivate and reinspire setting out again on the path that WILL lead to wholeness. Jan Forrest speaks with the authority of someone who's learned from past experiences and wants to share what she's learned with others walking a similar path. Her voice has integrity and purpose as well as calm assurance that all IS well within, we just need to be quiet enough to connect with ourselves, our authentic selves. I would recommend Coming Home to Ourselves: A Woman's Journey to Wholeness, to any woman who wants to do just that, reclaim the pieces of her life and use them to create a beautiful collage of who she is as a "whole person" and what she hopes for in the depth of her heart and soul.
