di Shannan Martin (Autore)

Baker Publishing Group, 2026

A USA Today bestseller! "There is absolutely no greater writer than Shannan to walk us through how to be a person right now. She is one of my most trusted voices on earth." --Jen Hatmaker, New York Times bestselling author of Awake It's easy to wish things were different--to wish the world didn't feel so heavy, to wish we didn't feel so powerless. We have this sense that there is a better life, a better world out there, just around the bend. But this is our actual life, and it mostly falls somewhere between the terrible and the sublime--ordinary hours crammed with small griefs and pops of joy. We move through our days with one fist full of possibility and the other clutching panic. And we only get to do this once, so we want to make it count. What can we do--today--to remain upright and hopeful through it all? With humor, humility, and a voice all her own, Shannan Martin introduces you to the heart-changing concept of counterweights: the essential practice of holding both the good and the bad with honesty and hope. She paints a compelling picture of noticing the ordinary, accessible delights hiding in plain sight--reminders that, even in tough times, life can be beautiful and deeply good. If you're feeling rattled, overwhelmed, or burned out, Counterweights is your invitation to take charge of what you can. Notice beauty. Carve out some comfort. Lean into the mundane moments and quirky rhythms that help you remember what you love about life, in all its dazzling chaos. Every counterweight you collect along the way tips the scales toward wholeness and resilient joy.
