Description
What if you cared for your life the way the NICU cares for its patients
As a neonatal therapist working with premature babies in the NICU neonatal intensive care unit Sue Ludwig understood that the more intentional and responsible she was with her energy and actions the greater and more positive her impact was on her tiny patients But while she spent her days caring for the most fragile of patients attuned to their sensitivities she realized she had been neglecting her own needs and desires
In this remarkable book about personal and professional transformation Ludwig shares her journey from burnedout caregiver to powerful changemaker and the lessons about selfcare and energy she learned in the NICU Through real patient stories reflection and practical tools she guides you toward living a more purposeful and intentional life
Most of us have been conditioned not to pay much attention to the mere moments of our days Were told to keep our eye on the prize on the future on the next goal just beyond the horizon We measure our lives by the outcomes we achieve College degree check Professional career check Spouse check Children check And yet by the time weve collected most of those checkmarks many of us dont feel all that vibrant We might even feel like roadkill
But just as the simple power of touch can have dramatic effects on the health and developmental outcomes of premature babies the energy we bring to everything we dono matter how smallimpacts us and our own personal development By acknowledging and taking charge of your energy you can start intentionally building an environment that supports rather than depletes it By taking baby steps you can fill each moment of your life as you choose and live the kind of life that reflects your intentions
