Like Julia Cameron’s The Artist’s Way, Joan Anderson’s bestselling A Year by the Sea revealed a far larger than expected constituency, in the form of thousands of women struggling to realize their full potential. After years of focusing on the needs of others as a wife and mother, Anderson devoted a year to rediscovering herself and reinvigorating her dreams. The questions she asked herself and the insights she gained became the core of the popular weekend workshops Anderson developed to help women figure out how—after being all things to all people—they can finally become what they need to be for themselves. A Weekend to Change Your Life brings Anderson’s techniques to women everywhere, providing a step-by-step path readers can follow at their own pace.
Drawing on her own life and on the experiences of the women she meets at her workshops, Anderson shows women how to move beyond the roles they play in relationship to others and reclaim their individuality. Through illustrations and gentle instruction, she illuminates the rewards of nurturing long-neglected talents, revitalizing plans sacrificed to the demands of family life, and redefining oneself by embracing new possibilities.
Wake Up, Sister. It’s Your Turn
A full life requires cultivation. The minute we take our hands off the plow, fail to reseed, forget to fertilize, we’ve lost our crop. And yet, most women I know, while in the service of some greater good have let their very lives wilt on the vine.
Having been taught the fine art of accommodation, most of us have developed a knack for selfless behavior. We’ve dulled our personal lives while propping up everyone else’s, and we’re no longer able even to imagine having any sort of adventure, romance, meaning, or purpose for ourselves. In short, we’ve gotten way off track and taken the wrong road to self-satisfaction, foolishly thinking that after all of the doing, giving, trying, and overworking someone will offer us a reward. But Prince Charming was a bad joke and all the fairy godmothers are dead. Instead of happy ever after, most of us end up with the ache. We wake up each day with an inner gnawing, a hunger for more, a craving for an overhaul, but we are too listless, tired, or depressed to do anything about it. We have spent the greater part of our lives pouring ourselves out like a pitcher. No wonder we feel so empty. But we lack the necessary energy, a helpful roadmap, and any type of guidance and support. Well, it’s time to change all of that.
—From A Weekend to Change Your Life
!1: Best Buy Having attended three of Joan Anderson's weekends over a ten year period, I was thrilled to see that this book was available to help those who don't have the time or money to travel to Cape Cod and spend a weekend in retreat. It is also a great tune up for those who have attended retreats. But it is most of all a way to have your own retreat at home alone or with a group of friends. It is a step by step guide to understanding yourself as your life changes and through that understanding to empower yourself to make the changes you know you need so that you can become the person you really are. Especially helpful for middle aged women who have spent a life fulfilling the expectations and needs of others, this book shows you how to take the time to recognize, understand and fulfill your own wishes, needs and desires. It is an excellent step by step guide for holding your own retreat with exercises, explanations and examples from Joan and other retreaters' own stories. Take a weekend away or just do a chapter a day/week. Spend the time to find your authentic self and the happiness you deserve. on Sale!
