Books on My Nightstand – June
Mindset – The New Psychology of Success by Carol S. Dweck
I loved this book; it was easy to read with lots of real-life stories and practical applications of the information. The two mindsets the author talks about are the fixed and growth mindsets and she shows how they influence everyday life. I particularly liked the parenting section, even though my kids are all grown.
Beach Read by Emily Henry
This lighthearted rom-com was a nice break from the stress of the day. It tells the story of two writers who find themselves living next door in a small beach community. The adventures that ensue provide for an entertaining and engaging read.
Lifespan- Why We Age and Why We Don’t Have To by David A. Sinclair PhD (this was an audible “read”)
The author explores the concept of aging as a disease that can be prevented or at the very least slowed down. There are some scientific sections that may not appeal to everyone, that being said they were presented in a user-friendly way. The research the author is doing definitely shows promise and provides food for thought. While I’m all for a healthier more vibrant life the idea of living to 125 or more is a lot to wrap my head around. I did add some of the supplements he talked about and will share the results.
That’s it for this week. If you have book suggestions drop me a note or post on social media, I’m always looking for a good read.
Namaste’
Be Well,
Cathy
