Repotting: 10 Steps for Redesigning Your Life
By Diana Holman and Ginger Pape
Whether it's because of social commitments, family responsibilities or work pressures, many women feel overwhelmed by daily tasks and need to make a life change.

Offering advice on how to gain courage to lead a more satisfying life, authors Diana Holman and Ginger Pape outline simple ways to achieve happiness in Repotting: 10 Steps for Redesigning your Life, (Hay House, Inc., 2007). The authors reveal that repotting is a metaphor "for the creative process that women must undertake in order to develop themselves as they search for a more meaningful life."

Holman and Pape emphasize that you can redesign your life for the better in several ways. For example, you can revamp your social skills, start a business or give back to the community; the authors encourage you to explore your passions.

Each chapter includes helpful "gardening tips" that remind you to focus on your goals. One such tip reminds you to "fertilize your garden" by adding enrichment to your life. For example, self-enrichment can mean going back to school and learning new skills that'll help you to make a more rewarding career change. The book also includes inspirational stories about women who have successfully "repotted" their lives by clearing obstacles and overcoming challenges.

In this book, you'll also find author-recommended websites and a book list to help you with: time management, health, spiritual guidance, philanthropy, employment, outdoor adventure and starting a new business. Explore these resources to maximize your repotting experience and start your journey towards a more meaningful life.
