Little Shifts for a Big Life: Create a Happier, More Intentional Life Through Choice, Courage, and Commitment
Are you ready for change, but unsure of the path to ultimate happiness and success?
Personal developmental leader, yoga teacher, and successful entrepreneur Nancy Perry feels that we would live in a much different—and better—world if we took the time to pause, listen in, and choose a perspective that is useful for ourselves and others.
Full of motivating short essays, Little Shifts for a Big Life is both spiritual and inspiring, yet incredibly practical and direct. You can pick it up in the morning to set the tone for your day, in the middle of the day to restart and correct course, or at the end of the day to convert any challenging experiences into growth. You will learn that
• you have a choice in who you are, no matter the circumstances;
• our bodies have incredible wisdom and are just as important to include in our lives as our thinking minds;
• response and reaction are two different things;
• love is a choice we can make again and again that can change everything;
• forgiveness is key and helps us reconnect to what is possible so we can grow.
Little Shifts for a Big Life is an encouraging reminder that we are all a vital part in changing the world for the better, starting with ourselves.

I have known I've needed to overhaul my life for sometime now. I was stuck in the past, not happy most of the time because I wanted to be back in the past when my kids were still little. But change is not only inevitable but also the only way we can get better and grow. Resisting it wastes our energy, keeps us stuck, and has us shrink back and limit our potential for the future.
At first I thought this was going to be just another self help book but with the advice and exercises, giving me small things to do each day, I feel confident that I've got a good foundation to start having the life I want again.
