Biography & Autobiography. Nonfiction. HTML: Nearly a decade after the debut of her best-selling, life-changing classic A Year by the Sea, Joan is so busy helping other women search for their true selves and taking care of several generations of her family that she doesn�??t even realize how out of control her life has become. Ironically, she finds she needs to listen to her own advice more than anyone else does. The Second Journey chronicles Joan's quest to restore her own equilibrium and find herself again. Suffused with her characteristic humor and warmth, this is a book for any woman who wants to know how to awaken her own independent spirit and set herself on a new path. Sharing her musings on love, marriage, family, growing older, aging parents, and spirituality, Joan offers reassurances that the best is yet to come and empowers other women to come of age in the middle of life.… (mehr)

I am now reading...The Second Journey...
Here are a few quotes from the book that stand out for me so far...

"It is the human condition of wanting two states-of wanting to be alone and wanting to be in relationship"

"Most long-term relationships, like the sea, ebb and flow; they require time to be separate and time for reconnection"

I enjoyed her books...A Year By the Sea & A Walk on the Beach...
especially intriguing is her account of her time with Joan Ericson.

Anderson, author of A Year by the Sea, has fallen back into old habits. She is running and gunning and she is not happy. Reflection about her stressful life sends on a short sabbatical where she reconnects with the deepest and most satisfying part of herself again. (

This is a broadly spiritual book for women looking to lead authentic lives. Encourages women to question their roles and the tasks that comprise our days. Lots of ideas to linger over. Very inspiring. A breath of fresh air. (

Of all Joan Anderson's books, this one resonated with me the most. Ten years after Joan first spent a year alone on Cape Cod in order to find where she belonged, she finds that life once again seems to be running her. She cuts back on work and embarks on a spiritual journey only to find that the journey will remain unfinished in this life. (

I wasn't as captured by this book as by "A Year by the Sea", though I wanted to be. I got to feeling that at some point you have to stop "thinking" about your life and start living it authentically. If the only way I can get back in touch with myself is to run away, that doesn't really work for me. (
