SIMPLE
THERAPY SNIPPETS (the brainchild of author Cynthia Wilcox
and illustrator Thea Ernest) is a tender, gently nuanced, and
lovingly crafted gem of a book - a slender volume and "easy
read" that somehow manages to offer "therapeutic tidbits"
that are at once simple (yes) but profound, humble but sophisticated,
unassuming but quietly compelling, and subtle but absolutely
riveting. Partaking of the "tasty bites" is a supremely
efficient way to expose yourself to some delightfully evocative
(and humorous) pearls of wisdom about life, relationships, communication,
feelings, and authenticity - the words and the illustrations
complementing each other beautifully!
At
the end of the day, SIMPLE THERAPY SNIPPETS is a handy guide
to "living well." Even the titles of some of the tidbits
- "No Is a Full Sentence" and "The Courage to
Live in the Space of Not Knowing" - will whet your appetite
for making a commitment to living, going forward, with more
clarity, courage, conviction, and consciousness.
Just
as you will probably get as much out of your life as you are
willing to put into it, so too you will probably get as much
out of this book as you are willing to put into it. So, please,
cherish the finely honed wisdom contained on the pages within
this uplifting volume, relax into their refreshing flow, and
revisit them whenever you are in need of a little inspiration
and some cost-effective "at-home therapy"!
