Tired of frenetic, joy-sucking days?
Tired of frenetic, joy-sucking days?
I was, too!
That’s why reading Hands Free Mama: A Guide to Putting Down the Phone, Burning the To-Do-List, and Letting Go of Perfection to Grasp What Really Matters! and Hands Free Life: 9 Habits for Overcoming Distraction, Living Better, and Loving More was a breath of fresh air.
I was doing life in a way that made me oh. so. weary. I clung to each chapter as if it was life support.
I know this sounds melodramatic, but it’s absolutely true.
Rachel’s words were so nourishing that I read only one chapter a week because I needed to let them sink deep. I also wanted this new way of looking at and doing life to stick. Each Sunday, I looked forward to being reminded and renewed of my purpose for making these changes, along with discovering new points to chew on and helpful tips to implement.
I’m not going to list specific ways these books helped or changed me, because I don’t want to pigeonhole them. I believe that everyone will have different take-aways depending on where you are in life. What I feel like she wrote just for me may not be the chapter that will blow your mind.
God’s timing in my life for these books was perfect. No surprise there! I can honestly say that through Rachel’s books and other ways my precious Heavenly Father has worked on me over the last year, I’m in such a better place. Frenetic no longer defines my way of life or mental state. WHEW!
The flip side of that is that when I look around, I can now see so many others in the same state I was in. I’m afraid that if you looked up frenetic in the dictionary, one of the definitions would read…
FRENETIC: adj. – The state of the average American Mom
If you are feeling this way, I encourage you to take advantage of this offer to get your hands on this material and pray that God would help use it to reveal areas where you can grow, find healing, relief, and best of all, more joy in life!
