Staying Power: Writings from a Pandemic Year (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780578871707)

This book won't change your life.

But it might change how you live it.

Life can be tough, even in the best of times. But life in a pandemic (and in the "new normal" afterward) requires a special sort of staying power. Can we do what must be done without giving up? Can we hold fast to our center?

We build staying power by ...

• nurturing gratitude
• increasing resilience
• practicing patience
• developing empathy and compassion
• appreciating the beauty of what's true
• keeping faith with ourselves and others

This inspiring collection of soulful musings and poetry will companion you through the remaining pandemic into the uncharted territory of the "new normal." Read to remind yourself how resilient you are. Read to remember that your spirit is bigger than your anxieties and worries, your wounds and losses. Read to remember you're not alone.
