It’s Day 2 of our self-declared Back to Me Month and today we’re asking everyone to give themselves the gift of time by taking a break from their daily responsibilities. Take 10 minutes to read a book, look through a magazine, let your mind wander and relax. If the daily grind has you stressed and taking 10 seems impossible, set a kitchen timer for 10 minutes and tell yourself to drop your worries until the timer rings. See if you can clear your mind and allow space to dream, to be entertained, to drink in the deliciousness that is reading.
Sometimes magazines are the perfect vacation with their short, digestible articles or info bites. That’s why we love them. We’ll be giving away two give cards, compliments of our friends at Magazines.com so that two people from our e-newsletter mailing list can subscribe to their favorite magazine. Sign up on the right hand side of our home page to be eligible. If you’re already a newsletter subscriber, no need to sign up again.
Our favorite magazines? There are so many but Queen Kathy reads her People cover to cover and Queen Cindy simply loves her More magazine. What magazines take you away and give you 10 minutes just for you?

I love redbook and people is good too !!!!!!!!
I think this is a wonderful idea. We get caught up in our daily routine forgetting to block out any time to just sit and do something we enjoy. I just discovered this site and looking forward to getting your book. One of my all time favorite magazines is Real Simple
I love reading Victoria magazine. It makes me dream, and I come away highly creative.
Good tips. I love Woman’s World Weekly Magazine.
It has such great health and beauty tips to make me look and feel like a queen and inspirational articles about REAL people who are queens of their own lives.
Can be bought at almost any grocery store and is a bargain.
