Self care and self improvement are important parts of our lives. When life becomes hectic and busy, as it always does, we tend to forget to take care of ourselves. When we don't take the time to care for ourselves and grow as humans, other parts of our lives can suffer. Our WooReaders have reviewed some great titles to help you get back on track!

Self-Care For College Students
This book would be helpful to anyone but especially to students considering going to college or who are in college because of all the important topics addressed which may be common sense but perhaps are topics too hard to talk about with someone and get feedback from them. The format is simple with five chapters of different self-care topics; they are: Mental Self-Care, Spiritual Care, Emotional Self-Care and Professional Self-Care. There are about twenty subtopics in each Self-Care chapter. The topics are what attracted me; the topics covered a range from Plan Your Weekly Meals to Surround Yourself with Positive People. Each subtopic is only one page which makes it an easier read. The book is 215 pages long.

Who Moved My Cheese?: An A-Mazing Way To Deal With Change In Your Work And In Your Life
By Spencer Johnson
A quick read on the obvious - changes happens, expect it, prepare for it, and enjoy the journey to a new place that may potentially bring us more joy. However, I can't help but fear that there is a greater ominous message, one that shifts blame from the perpetrator to the victim: Are you experiencing lay-offs (i.e. downsizing/right-sizing) in your company? You should have seen this coming and have structured your life so as to prepare for it. But what is one to do when such a change is unforeseeable? How many expected the recent great recession that resulted in transforming the lending and resulted in the loss of millions of jobs? It appears that the unfortunate message sent is - when a terrible event happens to you, don't waste your time trying to find out the cause and hold the person responsible to account, but shake it, sniff and scurry on to your next opportunity, provided there is another opportunity. Read it cautiously.

Manners seem like a given behavior. However, many of us have three or more environments where we socialize. Home is of course the first, school maybe the second and work the third environment. Sometimes the acceptable rules in each of these places may not be the same; so that is where a book like this is very helpful. This book comes in three parts which are: Branding (Personal Deportment), Business Etiquette and Dining Skills. Each part has about eleven subtopics. The topics covered include how to place silverware on a plate when resting between bites of food to introducing one friend or coworker to another using proper business etiquette. This book has 139 pages.

The Eight Sacred Responsibilities
By Cathy Mines
This is a life changing book. It reminds us of the steps to take to remember who we are and the power we have to create our lives. I love it and will continue to use it as a reference book.
