Description
How often have you read a book that was life changing? You know that if you practice what it suggests your life will be better, yet somehow you forget. You forget to meditate in the morning. You forget that three breaths calm you down. You forget all the lessons you learned.
Time for Me is different because it contains wisdom that really works. We have the ability to rewire and create new neural circuits in our brains, and the more we practice something new, the more we can form new neural pathways with each repetition. In time, these new pathways become deeper than the ones made by our old habits and they become automatic. That means, if we were to practice all this week thoughts such as 'I am happy' or 'I am calm', we would be more apt to return to them when we feel otherwise.
The seeds of all human characteristics are within us—good and bad—the ones that grow are the ones we nurture, and that is why the wisdom in Time for Me is designed to be practiced every day.
A Note From the Publisher2>

Practicing Ruth Fishel's program every day—one subject, one week at a time—can create new habits that will last a lifetime!
Advance Praise
"Ruth has struck gold once again. Her newest book, Time for Me, reads like a gentle invitation to both old readers and new ones alike to grab hold of the idea that change-- any change that would be beneficial to male--is always possible. She lays out the process for making the change in a clear, simple way. Nothing is too hard when taken in small bites, a week at a time. This book is sure to be a winner among those folks who have not given up on the idea that we are never too old to change."
--Karen Casey, author of Each Day a New Beginning and Living Long, Living Passionately
"The book Time for Me offers a great plan for anyone seeking more peace and joy in their lives. Ruth Fishel writes with clarity so that the principles she explains are easily understood. Her concise and lively writing is positive and uplifting!"
--Anda Peterson, author of Walks with Yogi: The Enlightenment Experiment
"I've been privileged many times to hear Ruth speak and interact with many different people on the spiritual path. She brings the same qualities to her writing that effectively move people in her presentations and retreats to take action. Ruth is passionate about sharing her hard-won wisdom through practical and down-to-earth suggestions. One gets the impression that she never recommends something she hasn't tried successfully in her own life. Her advice is illustrated and dramatized by hundreds of wonderful stories and quotes from the wisdom tradition, worth collecting and savoring in their own right."
--Ned Bellamy, author of Spiritual Values for Our Time
"Heartfelt guidance from a beloved meditation leader-- take time to read it now"
--Gina Ogden, PhD, LMFT, author of The Return of Desire and other books
"Ruth Fishel has delivered another great self-help manual with practical exercises to monitor and train our awareness of the complexity of 'self' and the wonder of 'time,' so we can manage both with mindfulness and purpose."
--Viviann Plenge, author of the ebook In the Eye of a Dragonfly: The Story of Jan
"Finally, the one book you will use daily! Ruth's newest work, Time for Me, is a gem! She brings the best of wisdom, spiritual practice, brain science, and her decades of experience into a 'How To Manual' not only for Recovery but for Life."
--Anne Vincent Stauffer, author of The Way to Stillness
