Overview

In October 2003, Patti Digh’s stepfather was diagnosed with lung cancer. He died 37 days later. The timeframe made an impression on her. What emerged was a commitment to ask herself every morning: What would I be doing today if I had only 37 days left to live? The answers changed her life and led to this new kind of book. Part meditation, part how-to guide, part memoir, Life is a Verb is all heart. 

 

Within these pages—enhanced by original artwork and wide, inviting margins ready to be written in—Digh identifies six core practices to jump-start a meaningful life: Say Yes, Trust Yourself, Slow Down, Be Generous, Speak Up, and Love More. Within this framework she supplies 37 edgy, funny, and literary life stories, each followed by a “do it now” 10-minute exercise as well as a practice to try for 37 days—and perhaps the rest of your life.

    A very thought provoking book about life changing events

    This book is a wonderful compilation of short stories of seemingly small, but impactful life events. The book is inspiring and fun to read.
    I was prompted to read this book by a group of women who like to challenge each other to be creative. We were told to read the stories, find one that inspired us and then spend 37 days implementing something we were inspired to do. I chose "Write a Grocery List." For the next 37 days I wrote to my Dad (age 83) and asked him a series of questions. I wanted him to write stories in his own handwriting. He responded with some amazing stories. This book was the inspiration for stories I can now pass along to my children.

    Get this book!

    This gem is located in the self-help section of Barnes and Nobles....so help YOURSELF to a wonderful, thought provoking, funny and touching book. Patti never beats you over the head with how she feels you are supposed to behave or think. She just says her reality and leaves the reader with new insights. You come away feeling your mind and heart refreshed and renewed. I urge you to add this book to your library...you'll be happy you did!
