Odyssey into the Night

It's unfortunate we don't come with an instruction manual when we're born. We stumble through childhood and adolescence into adulthood without the skills we need to survive. Author Loran Hills knows. She's suffered six ways from Sunday with depression, low self-esteem, body image problems and other assorted insecurities. Then, she learned new and healthier behaviors and thought processes she will share with you.

Each section of this book is based on Loran's life experience and lessons learned. Musings, memories and thought pieces fill the pages with a kind, compassionate, and sometimes cheeky compilation of information from a life well-lived - and an invitation to explore the truth about yours.

Change can be scary. It might mean doing something different and taking action. But you can start here, with this book. Inside you'll discover how to pay attention to your thoughts and question them, evaluate what you're saying, and practice self-compassion. There's guidance and wisdom you might not know you needed!
