Description

This book is the essence of the collaboration and teamwork between two close (but uniquely different) friends. Refreshingly honest and to-the-point, Making Space for Yourself is equal parts illuminating literary tool and contemplative art piece that provides the reader with a healthy dose of inspiration. Its unvarnished thoughts about life, self-care, and what it means to be human will help readers gain a deeper level of understanding about themselves, the world, and their relationships within the world.

The result?

A welcome feeling of peace and contentment, and a greater sense of how to live with compassion and enthusiasm.

Keep this book to yourself, as a companion to your own meditation practice. Or share it with others and use it to deepen and enrich your conversations and relationships.

Includes bonus workbook PDF.

Reviews

Erin and Bernie's collaboration brings to life ancient wisdom expressed through verse and watercolor illustrations. Each phrase and drawing captures the essential principles for loving and sharing your unique self with those around you. With the turn of every page, the reader is invited on a journey of inner reflection and self- acceptance. This lovely little book speaks the universal language of the heart, beating in unison with the longing to be fully at peace with the gift of our unique place in creation.

Making Space for Yourself is a feast for the eyes and the soul. You will be uplifted and challenged to deeply explore how you think about yourself and who you desire to become. The illustrations are glorious, will make you smile with delight and serve to move you to a deeper place inside of your spirit. The gentle questions included in the book support and guide you. It is a book to return to time and again.

Nan Cameron, MSN, RN, LA.c

This little book is simply lovely. The meditative imagery, empowering statements, and evocative questions weave together seamlessly, giving us, the readers, permission to pause. During an uneasy time in our shared humanity, this pause is necessary, so that we can move forward and act with intention in our greater communities. I will definitely use this book with my clients and, also, with myself!

Making Space for Yourself is an inspiration. The uplifting words, filled with wisdom and thoughtfulness, motivate me to be honest with my gifts and share them with others. The enlivening drawings match the words elegantly, and remind me to be creative and trust my imagination. I look forward to the creation of the whole "Drawing From the Well" series to give to friends and family.
