Summary of Marianne Power's Help Me!

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was told the water could be dangerous at this time of year. It was extremely cold. When I got in, I took a long breath out. #2 I was afraid of the cold, so I took an outdoor swim in one of the coldest days of the year. I was not afraid of the cold, but I was afraid of doing things that would get me arrested. I was going to spend January picking up the phone. #3 The author’s friend Rachel agreed to go swimming with her in the freezing cold pond. It was over very quickly, but the experience was beautiful. She felt alive, and the world felt full of possibility. #4 There are three levels to every fear: the surface story, the deeper ego fear of looking like an idiot, and the deepest fear of not being able to handle the feeling of being an idiot.
