Musician Heal Thyself is written by Annette Toenjes and is an
open-minded self-healing book with a main focus on Chronic Fatige
Syndrome (CFS).
Annette did a brilliant job of allowing the
reader into her confidences and bravely sharing some of her experiences
as she battled with CFS. I also commend her for taking the time to
compile so many experts and information on the subject matter.
Personally
I was especially drawn to the sections that dealt with self-healing in
the form of meditation and hypnotherapy. I felt as if both Annette and
the included experts did a great job of opening the door for further
dialogue, as well as providing a taste and additional resources, which
in many cases included the opportunity to test out methods for a free
trial to see if it may be a right fit for the reader.
I loved
that although the focus of this book was focused upon CFS, that it could
be useful to anyone that needs self-healing for any ailment, mental or
physical in their life. I don’t think that we can ever have enough
tools or options in the search for always being the healthiest and most
efficient version of ourselves.
Although I personally do not
suffer from CFS, I could see how given the current society that we live
in and how much stress we place upon ourselves in our daily lives, that
many of us may not be too far from encountering CFS-like symptoms or
ailments. Better stress management is useful for everyone.
My
only negative comments are that there were a couple of expert sections
that got a little dry for me, but may be very enlightening and
interesting to someone that was actually suffering from CFS. Overall, I
feel as though Annette did a wonderful job of presenting the facts,
information, possible solutions in a quick, easy to read format.
I
give this book 4.5 out of 5 stars, and would definitely recommend it,
in part or in whole to anyone looking for self-healing, higher level of
consciousness, and for a great opening reference guide to CFS, and any
associated healing methods.
*I received this book for free in exchange for a fair and honest review.

Liam's Musical Weekend
This weekend, my son Liam was very musically inclined. He did everything from singing to playing the xylophone, to the keyboards and even rocked out on a guitar that he was playing upside-down. I honestly have no idea where he saw that, but I found it to be quite hilarious! I just wanted to share some of the photos and videos with you from the musical weekend. I hope you enjoy the Liam updates and I hope everyone had an amazing weekend. Enjoy!
