Living a Conscious Life December 4, 2008
San Diego mom (san diego, ca)
I just got this book and it's great! There is a famous quote on each page followed by questions to get you thinking about how this quote relates to you and your life. It's followed by an affirmation to help you practice the idea throughout the day.
The title really does the book justice, helping you make each day of your life count, living life on purpose. I would recommend this book to children and adults. I'm even reading it to my 5 year old.

I bought this book because I want to keep my finger on the pulse of my kid's goals, feelings, and social well being. This book is similar to 'adult' affirmation books, but it truly is written for teens - and very well written;
Every day covers certain themes such as manners, feelings, attitudes, goals, time management, & problem solving. Each day begins with a quote from a variety of folks (Eleanor Roosevelt, Chris Rock, David Robinson, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Jesse Jackson, Sting, Mark Twain, etc.) A short paragraph gets you thinking & talking about the topic. The day ends with a topical affirmation (what the book calls "I-Statements") - suggestions about how to use the day's ideas in your daily life.
We have enjoyed this book. It's approx. 4'x6' and close to 400 pages. I keep it on the kitchen cupboard and plan to continue using it over breakfast throughout the school year.
GREAT! April 21, 2000
