"Everything I Have Ever Done That Worked" By Lesley Garner
"Everything I have ever done that worked" is a compilation of techniques, natural remedies and personal advice that journalist Lesley Garner has gathered through her experience of life. There is advice to lead a peaceful life, to bring you back to calmness, help you relax, help you cope with stressing times, and give you ideas on ways to move forward when you are stuck.
"Everything I have ever done that worked"
is divided into fifty-nine short 'essays' and therefore doesn't need linear reading. This positive thinking book has a catchy story-telling style that makes it attractive to read.

Some of the chapters that you can find in Lesley Garner's book include:

My thoughts
Practical and kind is "Everything I've ever done that worked". I enjoyed
reading it
mostly because it's the first hand experience of one of us humans through life, beautifully told. Lesley Garner found ways to get herself back on track through difficult circumstances and she's sharing with us what works. Having put into practice some of her advice myself, I can tell you it does work. "Seek and ye shall find. A coincidence is only a question meeting an answer in an unexpected way." Lesley Garner
