Lisa, thank you for sharing. I just checked out the e-book for _Do Walk_, by Libby DeLana. I go on daily walks, and I’m always up for reading a new book. This is perfect. I’ll add it to my daily walks. Thank you for sharing the Do Books with us at The Crazy Little Lovebirds link party #52.

I actually just posted about this too Lisa! So your heading pulled me in to read your experience!
My answer to your question is that I was inspired to be more Courageous in a very intense situation recently by the following amazing biography;

I don’t think books can MAKE us do things but they can definitely inspire us to take action. I find reading stories of people who have made changes that improve their lives inspiring, for sure! It is seldom I can take their changes into my own life without adjustment, but books have definitely had an influence on my actions as well as my thinking.

Making sourdough bread was one thing I did, after reading not just one book but lots of them. Then I wrote my own book because all the information was conflicting and confusing!

Walking more is a great thing to do.

Never heard of the DO books before but will check them out. The Do Pause one interests me. I do walk most days and feel better because of it. I think the book that change me was Fosters The Celebration of Discipline as it gave voice and value to spiritual practices in my life and set me free to explore and learn more of them. Happy weekend!!

Well, as you know, my friend, I also LOVE to read. And it just so happens that I just finished a book that has caused me to begin making changes in my life. By the way, the book was a recommendation from you…Atomic Habits by James Clear! I love it when books inspire me to that degree.

I’ve not read any of the DO Books…in fact, this is the first that I’ve heard of them, but I definitely want to check out a couple that you mentioned here, (Do Sourdough for one) and look up the list of all of them to see what else I might want to check out.

Sounds like a fascinating series of volumes, Lisa. DO can be a very compelling, encouraging invitation forward!

I hope your summer is going splendidly, friend …
