Quiet Journal is a guided journal<br />

companion to Susan Cain’s bestselling<br />

Quiet, a book that changed the<br />

way we see introverts and how<br />

introverts see themselves. This<br />

companion journal will help you<br />

harness your secret strengths, improve<br />

communication at home and at<br />

work, and nurture your best self. It<br />

takes you on the Quiet journey to<br />

becoming a stronger, more confident<br />

person. You’ll learn more about<br />

your own temperament through<br />

a self-assessment quiz, which will<br />

teach you to make progress towards<br />

self-awareness, and realise your own<br />

authentic qualities and worth, then<br />

learn how to put that knowledge into<br />

practice. Penguin, Random House, R320.<br />

In At Home With Cannabis, Kelly<br />

McQue gives you everything you need<br />

to know to make and use cannabis<br />

products safely and effectively at home.<br />

She shares her experience in helping<br />

others successfully heal or manage their<br />

conditions, provides tried-and-tested<br />

recipes and includes a basic dosage<br />

guide for treating different health issues.<br />

Penguin Random House, R200.<br />

Meet Om the Yoga Dog, your guide<br />

to all things yoga. With wonderful<br />

illustrations and brilliantly clear stepby-step<br />

instructions, this book by Ira<br />

Trivedi is an enjoyable, simple intro to<br />

yoga and mindfulness for kids (and<br />

their grown-ups). Just lovely! Penguin<br />

Random House, R215.<br />

Also worth reading ...<br />

The magnificent Bill Bryson (if you<br />

haven’t read all his books, you’re missing<br />

out) has turned his attention away<br />

from the laugh-out-loud exploration<br />

of places he’s lived and travelled (our<br />

favourite is Notes from a Small Island)<br />

and from achieving the seemingly<br />

impossible task of making the science<br />

of our world both understandable<br />

and entertaining in A Short History of<br />

Nearly Everything. Now he’s exploring<br />

the human body – how it functions<br />

and its remarkable ability to heal<br />

itself. Full of extraordinary facts and<br />

astonishing stories, The Body: a Guide<br />

for Occupants is now out in paperback,<br />

and is a brilliant, often very funny<br />

attempt to understand the miracle of<br />

our physical and neurological make-up.<br />

Penguin, R180.<br />
