The A-Z of Practical Wisdom by Lorraine Hockley is sub-titled ‘wise, practical ideas to improve your life’ and that’s exactly what it does. It’s a succinct guide to maintaining good mental health in today’s world. The alphabetical lay-out makes it a quick and easy reference to topics and life skills everyone needs help with from Acceptance to Zen. Each short reading-reflection is illuminated with stories from everyday life and designed to shift the reader’s thinking in a positive direction.

As Lorraine herself points out in the preface, you probably won’t agree with all the concepts she presents here, but some of them will hit you with such force that you’ll want to re-read them again and again. For me personally the chapters on Perseverance, Relationships, Self-Esteem and Uncertainty contain wonderful ideas based on hard-hitting truths that I need to be reminded of regularly.

The book shows you how one woman changed her life. Lorraine’s credentials are rock-solid – built on her own recovery from a place of dark despair. Her journey, her strong faith and her positivity will give the most cynical reader a breath of hope.

The A to Z of Practical Wisdom by Lorraine Hockley, grabbed me from the beginning and by that, I actually mean the table of contents. Even here she is organized and precise and you get a strong feeling that change just might be easier than you thought. The chapters are descriptive and helpful for “jumping” to a topic that may be of more interest than others at a particular time in ones’ life.

The wisdom the book contains comes across precise and to the point and is, as the subtitle promises, extremely practical. Each chapter offers yet another key to unlocking your own inner wisdom.

The book provides warm, inspiring messages that make you feel as if you are sitting down with a wise, kind friend. Hockley’s book is a gift for those who would like to create new and empowering patterns in their life.
