October at Pick Up The Thread is a month dedicated to self-care.The Book Club could not, of course, go unnoticed, choosing a different self-care book than the ones you probably have in mind.

Self-care is not just a hot bath, a delicious coffee on the balcony with friends. It can also be work. Something that also self-care needs. It can be those 10 minutes that you dedicate to yourself and be so precious. Or the 20 or the 30 or even a few moments but they are enough to relax your soul. As long as you have learned to enjoy these moments, big or small. Then self-care will be a medicine for you. And I wish all the medicines had the taste of self-care!

Having expressed our love for calendars many times, we found the ideal book - diary. A woman inspiration for many, who through her own personal search and perhaps need for self-care, created a personal self-study manual one would say. With questions that will really put you in the process of digging up your memories, your life and your soul. You will think, you will be moved and you will feel proud. First of all for you. Questions you may have been asking yourself since you went to school and how many things have changed since then. A calendar where you set the date, and the content. Just like in your therapy!

The tenth book for Book Club 2020 and the month of October that we suggest to you is "Becoming: A Guided Journal for Discovering Your Voice", by Michelle Obama.
