<p class="has-custom-weight has-custom-transform wp-block-paragraph" style="font-weight:normal;text-transform:initial;font-size:19px">Whether you are pursuing a complete reinvention of the self or are simply in the market for a book which will add value to your life – try a self-help book. Self-help books are helpful because they present ideas and scenarios which allow us to reflect on our choices, behaviors, and their origins. Self-help books are written by people who have been through valuable experiences which have changed their lives – experiences which they believe can also change the lives of others. One of these books may inspire you to take a change or make a change that will lead you to become the person you truly want to be.</p>

Susan Cain is an American author who writes on the value of harnessing the power of a somber perspective.

If you feel most inspired when listening to Claude Debussy’s “Clair De Lune” on a rainy day, you will feel at home in <em>Bittersweet</em>. This book offers authenticity where others only offer platitudes about positive thinking. ;</p>

<ol class="wp-block-list" start="5"><li><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Toxic-Positivity-Keeping-World-Obsessed/dp/1398704873/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&;qid=1659712949&;sr=1-1"><em>Toxic Positivity</em> by Whitney Goodman (2022)</a></li></ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The colloquialism “toxic positivity” was coined to describe the idea that negative emotions like stress, anger, and sadness, should be avoided at all costs. It is a sort of emotional mismanagement system that causes people to repress their true selves in order to show up in a way that is more pleasant for everyone else. Therapist Whitney Goodman subverts the societal expectation that people should repress their negative emotions and experiences and encourages people to show up as their authentic selves. If you are so tired of trying to be that person who is nice no matter what, this book will help you. ;</p>
