By Marilyn
Barnicke Belleghem M.Ed.
Questing Marilyn will teach you ways to take power and control in
your life and recover from insecurity and doubt.
Marilyn Barnicke Belleghem, M.Ed., shares her experiences as she
tours historical and sacred sites in Britain and Ireland and faces
the roadblocks that keep her from being the person she wants to
be. Applying the methods she uses as a marriage and family therapist
in practice since 1981, Marilyn discovers ways to let go of behaviours
she learned as an adult child of an alcoholic parent. Clarifying
her values, trusting her judgments and following her instincts leads
her to a new way to be her Self.
Readers can discover through the life skills Marilyn uses how developing
a relationship with themselves builds self esteem and confidence.
Questing Marilyn is as much a voyage of the inner spirit as it is
a wander through Salisbury Cathedral, Stonehenge, Glastonbury, Avebury,
Tintagel, Mousehole, Bath, Kilkenny, Dublin and more.
This is the first book in the Questing series.
Excellent for discussion!
“The most important message of this book, however, is the introduction
of travel as a tool towards self-exploration and self-acceptance.
Often, due to the busyness and chaos of daily life, individuals
don't have the luxury or time to truly understand who they are and
what they want from life. However, during a vacation, normal routines
and responsibilities can be temporarily forgotten. Thus, vacation
time is the perfect time to reflect on these very personalized aspects
of one's life, how he or she feels about that life, and what they
need to do to make his or herself happy. Moreover, this analysis
need not take place in Britain or Ireland. In fact, where the reader's
quest starts and ends is completely unique to that individual.”

“Perhaps most gratifying to realistic readers, Questing Marilyn
does not attempt to offer a so-called solution to all of life’s
challenges, nor does it foster the misconception that any path to
self-discovery is either easy or instantaneous. Rather, by sharing
her personal growth experience and augmenting it with her professional
insight, Belleghem inspires readers to go in search of their own
'holy grail.'” Tori Van Orden Martínez, journalist,
traveler. http://www.victoriahill.com/index.html
“So often, the modern woman suffers from self-neglect. When
fulfilling our duties as wives and mothers, we soon forget about
taking time for ourselves. It is considered selfish and after reading
Marilyn’s book, you will learn it is okay, if not necessary,
to take the epic journey to find your own self.” Jessica
