My Thoughts
I have done a study by Vicki and this book has a similar writing style. She is very honest and shares her own personal stories within the book about her busy life. We all need rest, but more than that we need to not overload our every day lives which is essentially what this book is about. Each chapter has "homework" you can complete to make it more personal to you. The thing that really stood out to me with this book is the huge list in the back. It includes ways in which to "rest" such as watching a sunset or planting a garden. I think this list gives ideas for your own creative thoughts so you can add to it.
The main thing is while many of us have probably heard about what she is saying in this book before, Vicki makes it applicable to our own lives.
Four stars.
