| SANTA FE, N.M., /PRNewswire/ -- Ask people what they’d like to change about their lives and you are likely to hear that they wish they had more time to take better care of themselves, to feel less stress, and more balance in their lifestyle. At least that’s what acupuncturist and wellness practitioner Carlyn Montes De Oca discovered when she asked her patients to name their biggest challenges. With that information in mind, Montes De Oca created a gratitude journal for dog lovers to bring the qualities dogs embody most to the forefront of their human’s lives—playfulness, loyalty, grace, gratitude, courage, enthusiasm and unconditional love. The result is Paws for the Good Stuff: A Dog Lover’s Journal for Creating a Happier & More Pawsitive Life! The journal, a follow-up to her #1 Amazon bestseller and award-winning book Dog as My Doctor, Cat as My Nurse, is meant to be kept on the nightstand so readers can answer three short questions when they get up in the morning and when they go to bed. (For example, This morning I woke up feeling ____ and I prefer to feel ____, and I am grateful to my dog because ____.) Paws for the Good Stuff (Goose Hill Press) is a six-month journal that will serve as a unique keepsake when it is completed, Montes De Oca says, and also features playful illustrations, inspiring quotations about dogs, simple weekly challenges, and access to six videos containing additional tips and resources. In an interview Montes De Oca can talk about:
