The high price for trying to get everything done is letting yourself become undone. A busy life is an easy place to lose you.  

Even in a busy life, the greatest gift you can give yourself is the gift of your own attention, discovering from within what is true and authentic.   

For this self-discovery, exotic travel is optional. Inquiry is mandatory. A Minute for Me gives you the tools that encourage inquiry, including  

  • Personal short stories to motivate your own exploration and inquiry

  • Simple 60-second exercises to build your “self-awareness” muscle

  • Ideas for generating new perspectives that can easily fit your day without changing your schedule or adding another item on your to-do list

You can think about the past, plan for the future, but the only time you experience life is right here, right now--in this very moment. A Minute for Me helps you live this moment to its fullest. Maybe that is the ultimate exotic travel—the exploration of your own heart.


A Minute for Me reminds us of the truths we all know but are too busy to apply in our lives. Each story, easily read within a minute, holds age-old wisdom disguised in daily life events. This is a book I can pick up anytime and open to just the right story I need for that day. — Vandita Kate Marchesiello, Manager, Kripalu Yoga Teachers Association


Such a simple concept, yet in today’s active world we need to be encouraged to take even one minute out of our busy life, just for ourselves. Fun and very accessible practices map our way to the great peace within each of us. — Nischala Joy Devi, author The Healing Path of Yoga and The Secret Power of Yoga
