•••••

Lisa M. Hendey's eminently practical and award-winning resource, The Handbook for Catholic Moms, has assisted new parents in balancing and integrating the highly personal needs of their hearts, minds, bodies, and souls with the responsibilities of family life and faith commitment.

Since its debut publication in 2010, it has been an invaluable resource for two generations of Catholic mothers, providing a unique viewpoint on all aspects of life as well as honest counsel from fellow mothers on themes ranging from marriage and finances to stress management and parish life.

The Handbook for Catholic Moms is not your standard parenting book: it doesn't include advice on how to quiet a fussy newborn or how to deal with adolescent angst. According to Lisa M. Hendey, founder of CatholicMom.com and bestselling author of The Book of Saints for Catholic Moms and The Grace of Yes, by caring for yourself—heart, mind, body, and soul—you may better love and care for your family, community, and Church.

Hendey shares her personal experiences and thoughts on a variety of themes, including:

stress reduction and sleep
nurturing your marriage
engaging in Mass as a family
modeling lifelong learning to your children
balancing your career with your vocation as a mother

Each chapter includes relevant scripture references, quotations from saints or noted Catholic figures, commentary and perspectives from other Catholic writers, and checklists of suggested steps moms can take in bringing better balance and integration to their lives.
