From bestselling author and Alzheimer's advocate Maria Shriver
comes the first coloring book created for brain health and people
with Alzheimer's. This interactive coloring book is filled with
inspiration and information that was developed in partnership with
neurologists, psychologists, caregivers, and, of course, people
with Alzheimer's. Each coloring page also features prompts to help
people with Alzheimer's and their caregivers create, connect, and
reflect. Color Your Mind combines coloring with useful brain health
tips about: - Nutrition - Exercise - Social Connection - Sleep -
...and other valuable lessons for a fulfilling, balanced life. The
activities, images, and approach in Color Your Mind were developed
and refined through visits to nursing homes and memory care
facilities. These visits and interactions also informed the
selection of cheerful, inspiring coloring images throughout the
book.
Graduating from high school is a big step for any girl. She is
leaving her childhood behind and beginning the rest of her life.
She is also leaving her mother's protective circle of love and
guidance. One of the greatest gifts a mother can give her daughter
at this pivotal moment in her life is good counsel. In "And One
More Thing Before You Go..."Maria Shriver, bestselling author,
acclaimed journalist, First Lady of California, and mother of two
daughters, provides a loving and heartfelt guide for girls as they
go off to college.
Expanded from a speech given to her young friend Ally's graduating
class, Maria writes as a wiser, more experienced girlfriend, but
also as both the daughter of a mother whose advice she still seeks
and as the mother of daughters for whom she wishes a fulfilling and
happy life. In this stirring and inspiring guide, Maria talks to
young women about how to find abundance and emotional richness, and
how not to overlook life's most special gifts. Her ten rules --
told in a witty and poignant anecdotal style -- offer a firm grasp
on what's really important in life.
"And One More Thing Before You Go..."is a book that transcends age
groups, a book that will make you laugh, cry, and open your eyes to
a new way of looking at life. Thoughtful, compassionate, and above
all, filled with love, "And One More Thing Before You Go..."is a
book that will make every mother cry and every daughter stop and
think about her mother's words.
In this candid and heartfelt book, Shriver offers up the lessons
she's learned along the way, and the meditations she's kept by her
side as a touchstone for the challenges that arise. The quotes,
scriptures, prayers, and reflections within are meant to encourage
empowerment, accomplishment, and forward mobility in women of all
ages.
"The Shriver Report: A Woman's Nation Takes on Alzheimer's" will be
the first comprehensive multi-disciplinary look at these questions
at this transformational moment. The Report will digest the current
trends in thinking about Alzheimer's, examine cutting-edge medical
research, look at societal impacts, and include a groundbreaking
and comprehensive national poll. It will feature original
photography and personal essays by men and women - some from the
public arena with names you know, some from everyday America -
sharing their personal struggles with the disease as patients,
caregivers and family members.
"I've learned that asking ourselves not just what we want to be,
but who we want to be is important at every stage of our lives, not
just when we're starting out in the world. That's because in a way,
we're starting out fresh in the world every single day." Just Who
Will You Be is a candid, heartfelt, and inspirational book for
seekers of all ages. Inspired by a speech she gave, Maria Shriver's
message is that what you do in your life isn't what matters. It's
who you are. It's an important lesson that will appeal to anyone of
any age looking for a life of meaning. In her own life, Shriver
always walked straight down her own distinctive path, achieving her
childhood goal of becoming "award-winning network newswoman Maria
Shriver." But when her husband was elected California's Governor
and she suddenly had to leave her job at NBC News, Maria was thrown
for a loop. Right about then, her nephew asked her to speak at his
high school graduation. She resisted, wondering how she could
possibly give advice to kids, when she was feeling so lost herself.
But in the end she relented and decided to dig down and dig deep,
and the result is this little jewel. Just Who Will You Be reminds
us that the answer to many of life's question lie within -- and
that we're all works in progress. That means it's never too late to
become the person you want to be. Now the question for you is this:
Just who will you be?
