Happy Valentine’s Day!
We all have encountered familiar moments where we need affirmations, but hearing it from the other person might sound like a pep talk at first, but eventually, it turns into a lecture about our lives.
Unless you are willing to sit quickly and hear your friends while they give life tips that might be slightly irreverent to yours, here are our 6 self-love books that will inspire you and advise you on self-reflection and acceptance just like a close buddy.
You Are Not Enough (And That’s Okay)
A novel by Allie Beth Stuckey, the book carefully talks about the toxic hustle culture engraved in the minds and lifestyles of the younger generation.
The constant need to look perfect, wake up before the sun rises, and even feel guilty when you take time out to relax, simply labelling that as unproductivity.
This exceptional book makes the readers face the cultural lies that have been told quite often while sharing relevant experiences and gospel truth.
Few might also label the piece as religiously focused with many Christian literature references, but put into simple words; it can be picked up anytime you feel the slightest of self-doubt or disappointment and highlight the positive mantras mentioned.
Good Vibes, Good Life
As the title suggests, ‘Good Vibes, Good Life: How Self-love is the Key to Unlocking Your Greatness’, the book is filled with positive affirmations and will put you in a deep sign full of introspections and numerous thoughts while initiating peace within yourself.
Doing justice to its name, the novel can be your companion anytime you encounter tough times and are searching for internal happiness and purpose.
It subtly makes you realise the important things without sounding too imposing or preachy. Even if you aren’t a big fan of self-love books, this great novel by Vex King can go on your must-read list.
Dear Self
Dear Self, by Patience Tamarra Davis, is an abounding collection of affirmations and humble reminders surrounding self-acceptance, reflection, self-love, healing, and growth.
With this one, be ready to enter the world of introspection as the novel takes you on a journey of deep personal reflection until you gently unfurl the numerous layers of yourself that will lead to internal growth and sheer happiness.
The book makes you face your various personas and encourages you to love every version of yourself. It is an insightful piece you can indulge in for a good read and loving affirmations.
The Art Of Living Alone And Loving It
In this novel, author Jane Mathews cleverly makes the readers face both sides of living alone.
Whether you label it as an ultimate luxury or a certain compromise, it comes with numerous daily challenges that must be dealt with carefully; whether you mention the simple task of cooking for oneself or handling tricky finances alone, juggling between things has pros and cons.
But the author also highlights living alone as solely true content experience, the time and peace that allows you to examine every aspect of your complete life, including relationships, finances, health, and even spirituality, so you take thoughtful action.
Here’s an inspirational compilation of all the goodness of realistic advice, practical suggestions, a touch of humour, and immense warmth to keep you going.
What A Time To Be Alone
In a world where we are constantly battling about our self-worth, and there are hundreds in line to tell us we are not good enough, ‘The Slumflower’, aka the author Chidera Eggerue, presents an empowering, gentle and intimate novel that is guaranteed to show you some light.
Navigating the dynamics of the modern world and young minds, the story will guide you through the positive side of being alone.
Stating it as not only enough but the most precious time, the book is for everyone who constantly associates happiness with people and has never appreciated the true essence of staying alone or being content in themselves.
The Self-Love Experiment
Author Shannon Kaiser walks you through her personal life experiences, sharing the journey of self-discovery and love while overcoming eating disorders, addictions, and depression and compassionately guiding you through the true essence of self-love and that treating yourself as the number one priority is not selfish.
