Book Reviews of Mothers Need Time-Outs, Too

Book Review: This would make a great book club book
Summary: 4 Stars

This would make a great book club book. It brings up so many important topics for mothers of all ages to discuss. I am looking forward to talking to my daughter-in-law about it. She is a new mom and I bought the book for her for Mother's Day. After briefly looking over the chapter titles I bought one for myself also.
I was glad I did. The book has many tips on helping women set practical and achievable goals for reclaiming our lives. We all need to be reminded to be "self aware", and "self accepting", to stay in the "here and now" and to take time for "self care".
I found the "tips from the trenches" sections very helpful. Especially the ones about the value of downtime and about simplifying our lives to regain control over them.
My favorite tip was - when pressed for time to really journal, at least write down a single word that represents your day. Even that tiny step can help us remember to take time outs for ourselves.
