This wise and accessible little book gets to the heart of how busy women can find a center of inner peace even when life is swirling like a cyclone around Them. The problem is not that women are busy, or that working women with children are the busiest people on the face of the earth. The problem is that we have been taught to think that our external lives need to be balanced in a prescribed way, or that they should be. Since they generally aren't, and the likelihood is that they never will be since life is always changing, we create suffering by resisting what is. This book will show you how to stop resisting your life, and how to start living in the center of the cyclone, where it is always peaceful. Life in balance is life lived from the inside out. We all know busy people who are centered and happy, and retired people who are miserable. Once you find your inner balance, you can keep it whatever your outer circumstance may be, wherever in the life cycle you are. In this book you will learn how to manage your energy, say no without feeling guilty, honor and respect yourself as a prerequisite for loving and caring for others, make peace with the past, welcome change, find your courage, be peaceful even in circumstances where happiness is not an option, manage your emotions, bury Superwoman and dance on her grave, banish the Drama Queen, live in the Now, follow your inner guidance, and be a beautiful mother, sister, aunt, daughter, lover and friend—all by being your best, authentic self. You are a system of energy. Understanding what feeds you and what feeds off of you is integral to establishing inner peace. Busyness is not the major problem for most women. It is the loss of energy to our thoughts about our lives that creates symptoms of inner disharmony like money troubles, poor choices, loss of empowerment, relationship difficulties, stress, health problems, parenting difficulties, meltdowns at work, anxiety and depression. These are the conditions that make us feel out of balance. And although a long bath or a vacation can help, finding authentic balance means learning to take back the power you have given away, and becoming wise, one satisfying steep at a time. That's what this book is all about.
