Here’s a sampling of some of my summer reading:

Building Mental Muscle by David Gamon, PH. D., and Allen D. Bragdon
(a book that explores all facets of the brain—how it works and how to make it work better)
The Secret Life of Water by Masaru Emoto
(more on the study of water crystals by a Japanese researcher—how our thoughts and words create an impact on the world around us)
Firstlight by Sue Monk Kidd
(a collection of Ms. Kidd’s “defining moments” and the spiritual insights she has gained from them)

A rather eclectic reading mix, but they seem to have a common aspect: positive thinking creates a positive environment in our lives. We so often forget, among the many stresses of each day, that we contain the power within ourselves to transform a moment, an event, an encounter into a positive experience.

A very simple but a very powerful message—for summer and for all seasons.
