Mermaids ... they conjure up the mystical, the beautiful. They are a powerful physical representation of all that's amazing and secretive about our own feminine selves. It's no wonder we are fascinated by them. In this book Amy Hege Atwell takes a deep dive into our modern lives as women, pulling apart the trite expectations and uncovering a beautiful new way to create our own stories. Her candid writing offers a chance to explore our hidden thoughts and feelings, with essays that will make you think, questions that ask you to turn inward and feel, and pages for journaling to document what you find in those beautiful depths. It's not really about mermaids, or about "being a mermaid," or anything specifically to do with the ocean. It's about freedom. And it's not about freedom from any one person, commitment or any actual PHYSICAL thing. It's about exploring old trains of thought, escaping the need to follow the same old path. It's about personal evolution, discovering you, in your own way and in your own time. It's about trusting the process and enjoying the journey. And most of all, it's about being okay with what may be revealed along the way. This guided journaling experience will unleash a new vision for the way you live your life. This powerful story of change and growth will help you look at the challenges you face in your own life. The inspired journaling questions will help you understand your own rules for living, and empower true change.
