Cheryl Richardson Wisdom for Troubled Times

Over the next two weeks, I will be sharing what I am calling Lessons from the Masters. Every day, I will feature one tip for personally prospering in tough times from people I respect as being among the wisest people that I know. Some are close friends, some are a mentor to me, and others are people who have somehow adopted me as their mentor. No single person can have all the answers for how to prosper in these tough time, as these times are so unique. But, I hope that by offering up this montage of tips, readers will be able to fashion their own game plan for personally prospering in these times.

First up in this series is a woman whose wisdom I respect enormously and who has made a huge difference in my own life, my friend Cheryl Richardson. Cheryl is a bestselling author and well known speaker. She has been featured on Oprah many times, has had two of her own PBS television specials, and has her own weekly radio show on Hay House Radio.

Cheryl’s latest book will be released in the next month and is perfectly timed for these tough times. The Art of Extreme Self Care is sure to become another best seller for Cheryl Richardson.

The thesis of Cheryl’s book and her recent speeches is that it is not enough to just commit to take care of one’s self. Our goal must be to practice EXTREME self care, especially in turbulent times.

In her typical divine fashion, Cheryl advises readers and attendees at her speeches that taking care of ourselves is not selfish; if by doing so, we then take care of others. In these troubled times, your loved ones, friends, co-workers and community will need your help even more. To be able to help them, you must make taking care of yourself...physically, mentally and spiritually...your highest priority.

Exceptional wisdom from a highly respected thought leader.

Coming tomorrow: The exceptional wisdom of Kat Tansey.
