IT’S TIME TO JOIN ME!

I am gradually moving some of my online activity to my app “Learn with Lucy.”

Please download the app (it’s free on either Google or Apple!). Register with the app right away, then check in regularly for anything new. Check out

On the app, you will find information about:

  • the courses I’m offering,
  • new blog posts,
  • books I’m reading,
  • recommended articles,
  • and much more.

Those who are registered with the app will get priority information right at your fingertips without having to find my website on your computer. Most of us have our cell phones handy all the time, anyway. To learn about my logo and more about the app, check out my post from November 13, 2023.

I’m still learning from the developer just how much the app can do, so we’ll be learning some of the new stuff together. I invite you to recommend this app to others who might be interested in more learning opportunities.

If you are looking for a life coach or mentor, please email me for more information at the address listed below.

My First Book Giveaway

I have acquired and kept, given away, lost, or donated thousands of books. As I head into my ninth decade of life, I am reminded that my books cannot follow me wherever I go in life – or death. Therefore, I need to get rid of them today while I can still decide where they are to go.

My goal is to give away as many books as I possibly can to people who want them. As the first step, I will write a brief review of one or more books on this blog at least once a month (maybe more often if I get around to it). If you read about a book you want, let me know, and I will send it to you, free of charge.

Word of warning: Some of these books either have yellow highlighting, underlining, or notes in the margin. Others will look like new, and you’ll wonder if I ever read them, but I have read every book I own. Whether or not you see markings has no bearing on what I thought of the book.

You have one month from the date I post the information to request the book. After that, it will go into a box for donations to a thrift shop.

The first book I will give you is Chi Walking by Danny and Katherine Dreyer. We learn to walk early in life, then perhaps we get away from it when life got too busy to walk for leisure. I was a walker for many years and even a runner at one point. Then after back surgery, I ended up with some nerve damage in my left leg, so I now use a walker to get around, still with chi.

What is chi? It’s your life force, and the authors say, “With chi flowing in your life, your energy expands and grows rather than spiraling downward like water whirlpooling down a drain.” It is my personal hope that by walking with chi, my leg will improve. Would you like to own this book?

REMINDER: For information on being mentored by me, please see my blog of November 26, 2023  https://lavalily.com/2023/11/26/guess-what/  Beginning in 2024, I will offer individual and private mentoring in four one-hour sessions on how to “Grow Older with Gusto!” at any stage of life.

If you want to learn more about this opportunity, comment on that post with your email, and I will respond. Your email will not be posted for the public to see. We can discuss your options, or if you live near Kailua-Kona, HI, perhaps we can meet over a cuppa to make plans.

A hui hou!
