I was abit skeptical of this book as I just picked it up at work one day, but it was actually great! Full of great advice and how to be more self aware about being kind to yourself and others in particular. It’s not too long to read and I’d recommend to anyone. I think most people could take something useful away from reading this. I’m going to try and track down/ read some more of Dr Arnold’s other books.

This appeared in my street library and I thought it was a handy little book for my bag while waiting for an appointment. But I wonder what sort of person would benefit from it? Presumably someone who needs to be told to: help someone with a suitcase, give back something that a person's dropped on public transport, speak to a stranger who's in distress or buy food for a homeless person.
I don't know anyone who wouldn't do all of this as a matter of course, but I guess there are some people who don't. However I can't see those people buying this book. I would have been better off using the time just sitting and thinking.

It's exactly what it says, a small book with little tips about being more kind to yourself and the world around you. Nothing more, nothing less :) cute little read

A short and useful book that takes you through self kindness as well as kindness to others and purpose in the world. The title sounds simplistic, but I was impressed by the insights and tools that were introduced throughout the book. Actionable, easy to follow, and worth returning to.

I grabbed this book on a whim last night because I really craved reading a physical book. I bought this book from asos out of all places very randomly for very cheap because it had a cute title and a nice cover. It's probably gonna be a coffee table book. It's definitely so nice and helpful to read. I found it to be short and sweet and had the perfect amount of info about something without overdoing it. The book has helped me do some self-reflection and remember to always be kind to people. Also, I just cozied up with a cup of coffee this morning, and then just on the couch and reading it felt so peaceful. It felt like a perfect Sunday thing to do and it's probably because I just feel so happy the book just sounded pleasant to me. :3 Definitely gonna try to pick up more physical books than my kobo now.

So yeah, 4.5 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫
