Most of us would not describe ourselves as one of the aholics and almost all of us would agree that we quite simply do too much. Doing too much seems to be a given for most women.

Yet, as we discussed the need for such a book, we began to explore the many different kinds of women who overwork and do too much and agreed that many of us would not initially define ourselves as workaholics. Most of us would not describe ourselves as one of the aholics and almost all of us would agree that we quite simply do too much. How long have we known about this phenomenon? A long time.

Many of today's women are overextended- addicted to working, rushing, taking care of 'other' people's needs.

Many women who do too much believe that there are tricks to loving. If we can just look sexy enough, we can make others love us.

We can only learn to love by loving. Many women who do too much believe that there are tricks to loving. Or of we just take care of others and make ourselves indispensable, they will love us. We don't learn to love by loving, we try to control love by manipulation. Unfortunately, these methods do not teach us much about loving. It is letting go of expectations and just allowing.

Anne Wilson Schaef is an internationally known author, speaker, consultant, and seminar leader who has been described as one of the most important thinkers of our time, cutting edge, way ahead of her time, and having the vision of the eagle.

Many of today's women are overextended栤diction to working, rushing, taking care of other people's needs. With wisdom, insight, and humor, these 365 mediations梯mbined with quotations from women of different ages, cultures, and perspectives涩ll help women recognize that cycle. In a welcome antidote to the mad rush of modern living, Schaef's concise meditations will open new doors to new ways of living. These meditations will provide sustenance and inspiration and create possibilities for positive change in the lives of all women who do too much.

So, I usually don't write reviews of anything, but I wanted to write something this time mainly because of what this book has already done for me (and I just got it this afternoon). For most of my life, I've been an anxious person- I take on way too much responsibility even when the responsibility isn't mine to take and I put a lot of pressure on myself to be "perfect". Recently though, I've started working on it with a therapist because my phobias started getting a little out of control and she recommended that I try out this book. Because I'm sure so many other women out there have more responsibilities than I do (I'm 23 and I live with my parents though I work full time), I was a little hesitant to try it, but I'm so glad I did. Honestly, there's not much that keeps me calm anymore, but from the second I opened this book, I felt a little less of the pressure that's become normal for me. Even though I usually don't do this sort of thing, especially with something so deeply personal, I wanted to say a huge thank you to this author (if she ever sees it). I'm an aspiring novelist and I know how much it means to me when someone says my writing has touched them. So thank you so much for putting this book together- I already know that it's going to help me beat my anxiety!

If the title gets your attention, you probably should get it. I need to be reminded that no matter how much I do, the world is not going to be a better place unless I relax. The illusion of ambition and "success" can be a powerful drug. This is a good primer for people who can't sleep because they are too wound up, who have had walking pneumonia, who are workaholics or exist only for their kids. Balance, humor, self care are emphasized.

Daily meditations are right on with what I need help with everyday. I gifted this book to many freinds who share the same or similiar issues and need help with gaining awareness of problems, guidance and direction.

I bought this book for myself when I was feeling frazzled by all the demands of everyday life. Although I worried I was just giving myself yet another task to squeeze into the day, I have really enjoyed this book!!! Each page is a different day of the year with a different thought. The day's page only takes a minute to read, and it is always uplifting and encouraging. It really helps put everything back into perspective and shift your focus back to you.

I've purchased this for several friends, and they have likewise enjoyed it. Highly recommend for any busy women looking to regain a little perspective.

I am an over-producing, stressed-out Mom and business owner. And I found I was taking out my stress on the people that deserve it least--my family and me. I needed to change for all of us. I received this as a gift a long time ago, and just didn't get around to opening it. Then for the new decade I decided to make time for myself (nearly) everyday to get on my yoga mat, or any quiet spot, and take a few minutes to listen to my mind and body.

On January 1st I opened to the first entry. Almost every entry gives me pause, and I think about what i throughout the day. The meditations bring me into a calm place, and make me be very honest with myself. Sometimes so honest I know I am not ready for it and I hope next year when I re-read it I will be ready to that honest and forward.

Very, very good book. I am learning to talk from my heart space.

I was reading one of these each night and I appreciated the writing and the messages. Some made me think about how fast paced I get sometimes.

I've had this book for 13 years and I try to read it everyday. Each year I find new things that speak to me and I underline them in different colors. As I age I find something new - I've given several friends this book and they, too, love it and read it daily.

Very good book. Look forward to reading it each day. Good daily meditations and written well.
