A Woman, a Dog & a Blog: Writing into Life

By Maggie Baker

Sometimes a story is told as much by what is left out as what is included.

It isn't always easy to be positive about the challenges that we face in life, but it is possible.

Volume I of this edition was originally published as 'Train your dog; train your mind - positive reinforcement for humans and canines'.

It gives a 28-day account of what for me, at that time, represented the final push to the top of the mental health recovery mountain that I'd been climbing for over three decades.

I'm neither a dog trainer nor a mind trainer. I'm a 69-year-old woman who adopted a rescue dog in February 2022 and who has found that my dog, Lydia, has helped me to overcome my fears and anxieties as I've been helping her to overcome hers.

Volume II is a 28-day record of our continuing journey.

My aim is to make the most of every day, and to help Lydia have the best possible life in my care.

I hope that by sharing mine and Lydia's story it will also help others to find their best life too.
