The Whole Life: 52 Weeks of Biblical Self-Care – Eliza Huie and Esther Smith

This easy to read text is set up to be used on a weekly basis.  It provides insights regarding self-care from a Christian perspective covering a myriad of different life elements: spiritual, physical, purposeful, community, work, and rest.  I particularly appreciated the sections that came directly after the readings which connected the concepts discussed to the gospel as well as the action/application options and the guided journaling prompts.  This book would make a lovely gift for a family member, a friend, or even for yourself.
