I’m doing something different today.

Normally, my podcast episodes focus on the what, why and how of restorative reading and writing, bibliotherapy and notebooking. But today, I’m interrupting my own podcast calendar with a step-by-step description of my own process of bibliotherapy with a book that you MUST read.

We’ll talk about what bibliotherapy and restorative reading is, how some of the best books are INCIDENTAL forms of bibliotherapy and the personal reflections I had while reading this book.

You’ll find the show notes for the episode with links to all of the books and resources mentioned right here: https://www.alitlife.com/2025/04/29/incidental-bibliotherapy-with-the-frozen-river/
