Welcome to Spring everyone! I’m shortening these posts to make life a little lighter for me (having health-fun).
Long ago, I was training to become a therapist in CA. The funny thing – not funny-haha, but funny-odd – is that I’m certain I’d be a better therapist today when I never see clients, never read books on the subject, or have lunch with therapist friends, but I still would be better today thanks to life’s curve balls. (Life is so reliable that way.)
That said, I give you the master therapist of all therapists: Irvin D. Yalom, M.D. This brilliant man spent his life at Stanford teaching and writing books that speak to the person; in my case hee spoke to Wendy-me versus therapist-me. In other words, nothing dry about Yalom’s book. They’re all phenomenal . Today I want to share with you, The Gift of Therapy: An Open Letter to a New Generation of Therapists and Their Patients. I read the Gift. Published in 2001, I still remember some of the key moments. So good. I highly recommend anything from this genius of a man.
Be honest, do I sound like a goofy fan girl?

Happy Spring everyone! My gratitude of the day: I’m grateful for all of the allergy meds and allergy eye drops at Kroger. (Just say yes to drugs, kids.)
♥, Wendy
