PILLS for the Happy Soul (Prescription Inspiration Life Lessons for Success) is an inspirational coaching book delivered in simple easily-understood poetic form. It comprises real life stories, motivational messages - and even a little humor - expressing life's trials, hopes and triumph. It incorporates great quotes, Bible verses and thought-provoking questions for reflection. It encourages readers to practice good self-care, bounce back from adversity as well as to build and maintain healthy relationships with God and others. It promotes hope, authenticity, vulnerability, insight, support, purpose and determination as tools for lasting happiness and success. Through reflections on Faith, Family and Feelings, the author, a medical doctor, motivational teacher and coach, shares wisdom gained from her wide personal experience on matters like physical disability, divorce, forgiveness, singleness, marriage, parenting, friendship, stress management, grieving losses through dementia and death, as well as growing in faith and obedience. Lessons learnt from the lives of others like Usain Bolt are also shared. Other topics include communication, eating, money, and work. A few original lyrics interspersed between the poems add variety to the form of presentation of the message. Individuals facing challenges or pursuing personal growth will be heartened and revitalized as they gain insight and coach themselves. Small groups, doctors, counselors, coaches, retreat leaders, pastors and others who understand and empathize with the human condition will be equally enriched. These PILLS are like emotional supplements for Happiness, Resilience and Success for the courageous soul.
