Pages : 209
Book Description
Terry Hershey, a popular author and retreat leader, understands that slowing down is difficult when you live in a fast-forward world. However, he also knows from personal experience that there is always a price to pay if we don't regularly take time simply to pause--to cease activity, to treasure quiet time, and to discern the deep meaning of life's little moments. In The Power of Pause, Hershey uses powerful stories and meditations, inspiring quotes, and a specific call to action at the end of each chapter to help us understand the profound value of slowing down in our daily lives and taking time for the truly important things. Over the course of 52 brief chapters, we learn how to take back the life God always intended for us to have by letting go of the things that keep getting in our way.

She shows us how slowing down, stillness, and deeper connection to our own transitions empower us to move through collective shifts with more grace—and what it means to navigate shifts and change with presence and courage.

Book Description
"Danielle Marchant is a beguiling leader - a refreshing mix of pragmatic and soulful. She facilitates with a light hand and an engaged heart" Queen of Retreats Pause is an important message ready to be heard. We check our phones an average of 221 times a day, we have apps that help us sleep and remind us to be mindful while we secretly measure our success in 'likes'. Time is our luxury and yet with technology we are never able to leave the office, even when we aren't there. The fear of missing out makes us rush from one thing to the next, not really taking any of it in. Pause allows you to finally put yourself, your feelings and your intuition first. Learning to say no, doing the things that make you feel good, and not doing the things that don't make you feel good - these are not self indulgent. Listening to your own heart and wisdom doesn't make you selfish, slowing down to appreciate your life isn't lazy or unambitious. It is an ancient message, but still just as strong; when you pause to take care of yourself and your own life, you become the person you're meant to be. This book gives you the space and the practices so that you can learn how to benefit from the power of the pause. It uses nature, creativity and your inner spirit to allow the energy to flow freely once again. There are exercises to ground you, give access to your intuition, to breathe deeply and allow your monkey mind to settle. It gives you time to explore what is big in your life right now, to know deep down what matters. It opens you up, allowing you to freely experience all the pain, the joy and the twists and turns of life. It gives you back your courage, your fire and your connection.

An Invitation to Pause
Author: Janet Archer
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780692490662
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
Sometimes we forget and need to be reminded.... of our shared humanity, of what is important in life and of how to see an experience in a new light. In 2012, Janet Archer retired from a 28 year career as an elementary school teacher. It was then that she began to explore and document her immediate world through the eyes of her training as a life coach and a yoga and mindfulness teacher. She began sending out these "musings" to a large group of clients, friends and family and got many letters in return thanking her, because her insights were helping them to see something in a clearer way, one that was bringing them a sense of peace and calm. Along the way, her mother got dementia and came to live close by to Janet and many of her musings became centered around living with a parent with dementia. Each of these musings brings the reader to a place of compassion and love for both the adult child and the parent who are both involved in this new world of living with dementia. Being inspired to continue, Janet wrote over 100 musings and then decided to put 28 of those musings into this collection: An Invitation to Pause: musings from a mindfulness teacher. Through her story telling and poetic prose, Janet Archer helps you shift from the rush of life to quietly contemplating its ups and downs. A book where you can open up and read at any spot, her compassionate reflections remind us that every obstacle we run into is worth a second look and most importantly a laugh. If you are looking for a read that is uplifting, comforting and inspirational, then accept the invitation to pause from this wise and witty mindfulness teacher. You won't regret it.
