Self-care books on your reading lists!
Five authors recommend one self-help book they loved… and why you will too!
1. A breather
The Country Without a Post Office
Picked by: Aanchal Malhotra
“This book healed my heart! It is introspective about everyday things. It has the ability to slow things down, and when I was reading this one, things around me didn’t matter. It gives you time away from a fast-paced life, to breathe and just enjoy words.”
2. Keeping in check
The Checklist Manifesto: How to Get Things Right
Picked by: Ira Mukhoty
“I think this book works because I love the idea of how a simple tool like a checklist was developed by this great surgeon to save lives, and how this can be translated into everyday tasks in life too!”
3. One-point focus
The Power of Now: A Guide To Spiritual Enlightenment
Picked by: Sharif D Rangnekar
“This book helps you focus on the present instead of constantly thinking about the past or future, which most of us are prone to doing. It is relaxing and de-stressing. It brings the focus back to yourself.”
4. Emotional ride
All About Love: New Visions
Picked by: Gurmehar Kaur
“The book taught me how to love myself, to understand how I love and how to love, and leaves me in an emotionally complete state.”
5. Being thyself
The Secret
Picked by: Shabri Prasad
“The Secret by Rhonda Byrne is iconic. But, the secret has a secret! You are exactly what you want to be. You attract exactly what you think about. Whatever I want, I can do it by telling myself that I can do it. Self-help is also about being able to love yourself and having a positive mindset and that, my friends, is the secret!”
