Items related to The Comfort Queen's Guide to Life: Create All That...
This deeply engaging book will help you discover the unique shape of your life by asking yourself questions. Then, with the help of the Comfort Queen, you will discover how to reorient your life around your own desires and needs rather than around time-management tricks. A Comfort Queen rules her own life. She treats herself with the same kindness and respect as she does the people she loves. She has a healthy sense of humor about herself. Rest, self-nurturing, and harmony are her imperial rights. She keeps her eye on the unfolding path of her life and lives by what she treasures. Or at least she tries.
A Comfort Queen also knows that "balance" is not a realistic goal for realistic women. Having the perfect home, the perfect relationship, and enough quality time with your children and friends is a magazine article, not a life. Jennifer Louden and her Comfort Queen know that real life isn't about balance; it's about meaning!
Jennifer Louden, the best-selling author of The Woman's Comfort Book and The Woman's Retreat Book -- pioneering books on self-nurturing for women -- shows you realistic and fun ways to go inside yourself and create the rich, fulfilling, and sometimes slightly askew life that fits you.

Review:
Forget the life of perfect balance--according to the fairy godmother of self-nurturing, Jennifer Louden, it only exists in magazine articles. Instead of emphasizing balance in The Comfort Queen's Guide to Life, Louden shows readers how to get a life of meaning. In a flight of whimsy, Louden decided to write this book as if she were talking to her "inner feminine voice"--the wisecracking "Comfort Queen," who sounds like an honorary member of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood. Each of the book's chapters--which have titles such as "Mindful Listening," "Glass Half Full," and "Fierce Desire"--include the Queen's tell-it-like-it-is lessons. When she's having a self-doubting spiritual crisis, Louden turns to the Comfort Queen, who helps Louden ask herself (and the readers) the right questions. Like the Sufi poet Rumi once said: it is not the answers that offer a life of meaning, it is living the questions. Louden's understanding of this truth has resulted in a humble, tea-cozy book of questions with just a few lumps of sugary advice. The only real downside to this book is that its integrity is weakened by the simultaneous launch of a complete line of cute "Comfort Queen" products. --Gail Hudson
