So I’ve found out I’m a scanner. I prefer to call myself a renniasance woman (that whole allusion to the 80s movie gives me the willies). Even so, I’m starting to embrace her discovery, or un-covery of my type of lifstyle behaviour.
To be honest, when I first heard Barbara Sher talking about ‘scanners’ it was so mind bending to me it was on the verge of hearasy. While that remained my sentiment somewhere in the back of my mind, I still went out and bought the book. I started to read it around the begining of 2006 but couldn’t get past the ‘heretical’ introduction so I put it down.
Well now it’s 2007. I’m a year older, 2x a mother, and ready to listen, so I started reading the book again and you’ll be proud to know I’m all the way into the first chapter.
I’ve stopped at the point where she said ‘stop and do such and such right now’ and am in the process of doing just that.
