Summary: Very motivating and challenging!
Review: (originally posted: July 30, 1998)A funny and insightful beginning slowly becomes an enlightening mirror. Ms. Gandy encourages self examination that ultimately stimulates self renewal. I took a retreat one weekend to read this book and get it together. I'm still working on applying some of the practical principles. My attitude is different now - not cocky but more confident and peaceful because Ms. Gandy made me realize that I can't take care of someone help without taking care of myself first. Although some of the principles are not my style, the overall theme and development definitely woke me up!

Summary: A must have for ALL SBW. It's time to take care of ourselves
Review: Debrena Jackson Gandy puts it all in a nutshell. It is time for all women (not only Afro American) to take time out of our lives do times that brings "us" joy. We as mothers, wives, teachers, etc...spend much of time nuturing other and we fail to realize that "we" are our main priority. I really enjoyed this book. Please read this book, it can make difference>>>Take the time! You deserve it.

Summary: Not bad but too much
Review: When I think of pampering, I think of kicking back and relaxing. If I have to work too hard to get to this point, is it still pampering? This is a decent book with good suggestions but if you are busy, you may want to get to a spa or a good massage school for a discounted massage. I see where Debrena is going with her suggestions and I was enlightened to read about chakras and aromatherapy. If I was going to go into this type of business, this would be and XLNT book but for the SBW or any other woman this may be a bit much.
