I loved Marlena s DAILEY CHECK IN it’s a brief check to think about through out the day to keep us centered.
The other part of the book I loved are the “ Brightspot Bubbles” They are beautifully presented Affirmations. I would love to copy them all and wallpaper my bedroom with them !

I'm a friend and neighbor of Marlena and Robert - They are the real deals. They have dedicated their lives to bettering their own community and beyond. This self-help book is the culmination of their sincere desire for all to live in wellness. They focus on the journey and journaling which has proven to help direct the mind on what is important, not the external forces that pull at all of us. You will enjoy the illustrations all done by Marlena. She has focused her illustrations on butterflies which we all know evolve into beautiful creatures. I'm giving this self-care book to all my family and friends - it's a gift of love in a scary world these days.

Marlene and Robert are beautiful souls and they have outdone themselves with this guidebook. As a certified fitness instructor for over twenty years, I know that making your own wellness a top priority is a life changing decision. Yes, we must be kind and loving to others, but how can we fully embrace that if we don't start by being kind and loving to OURSELVES! So read this, let it fill your heart, and then go and conquer the world.

I spent much of my adult life focused on external things not realizing that everything begins with my own self-awareness. This companion book reminds me that making myself a priority is the first essential step to creating the life I truly love.
A Self-Care Lifestyle is not a luxury< it is a necessity for every woman to experience a positive and joyful life. This book gave me a structure where in just a few minutes every day I can maintain my health, and eliminate chronic pain that has plagued me for years... this is a must if you care about yourself.

Self-Care for Women is a book and companion workbook that reminds us to focus on the positive things In life and find joy in everyday experiences.
It reminds us to connect with our inner child and teaches us ways to find peace from within.
It's a perfect book to unwind with after experiencing a challenging day. As an RN, I know it's important that I remember to reread this book frequently.

“A Book About How to Create the Life I Love” is a beautifully written, empowering guide that reminds us of the importance of self-care, self-worth, and living with intention. From the very first page, it speaks directly to the heart, encouraging women to step off the stress wheel and take back control of their happiness and well-being.
What I love most is how this book isn’t just about feel-good advice—it’s filled with actionable steps and a structured approach to making real, lasting changes. The 7-Day Self-Care Jumpstart is a fantastic way to ease into healthier habits, and the focus on balance in all aspects of life—physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and social—makes it incredibly well-rounded.

This is a lovely book – beautifully illustrated in a very uplifting and peaceful way – makes me want to keep turning the pages. As a licensed nutritionist, I know that most of us find making lifestyle changes challenging – even when we know how important it is to our health, well-being, and quality of life. Taking the time from our hectic schedules to focus on self-care requires motivation. I will be recommending this book to my clients to empower them to achieve their goals. I especially like the action-oriented steps allowing each reader to work at a pace that is right for her. The self-assessment test at the beginning and end of the book will allow each reader to see the progress she has made, a strong motivating factor.
Thank you, Marlena and Robert, for a very valuable tool!
