What I loved most is that it’s not just theory—it’s practical. Each chapter offers simple, science-backed techniques that you can apply immediately. Whether it’s mindfulness, reframing negative thoughts, or shifting your focus to the present, the book provides real solutions that actually work.
The writing is clear, engaging, and easy to follow, making it perfect for both deep thinkers and those who just need quick, effective tools to quiet their minds. If you tend to get stuck in loops of overanalyzing or second-guessing yourself, this book is a game-changer. Highly recommend!

Always time to be your best self
I liked this book so much more than the other one I read from this author about law of attraction. There are some editing issues, but overall the writing is in Engaging.
Anyone going through a hard time and dealing with severe overthinking should definitely read this book. Although there are definitely times like it might even make you feel like you’re going crazy. I loved the inspirational quotes as well because I’ve always been a huge fan of these. I like to write them down and put them on post it notes on my mirrors. The writing style in particular is unique and the pacing is on point. Also touching on a major topic of suicide really gets you engaged in the story from the get-go.

A thoughtful, well-organized resource that brings both clarity and relief to anyone caught in cycles of worry or mental overload.

La información y los conocimientos de este libro me parecieron increíblemente útiles. Espero que al poner en práctica estos consejos en mi vida, finalmente pueda tener algo de tranquilidad. Este libro fue bien pensado y elaborado de una manera que le brinda la capacidad, en algunos casos, de actuar de inmediato. El resto tardaré en incorporarlos a mi rutina diaria. Este fue un libro útil. Espero que te ayude a ti también.

Did nothing for me
More of the same tropes as with most self help books. I was distracted by the typos. It's not a bad book, just not right for me.

Psychobabble
Not an a credited source. Just psycho babble about the stress in life and new age techniques to resolve them.
Hard pass.
