Book is sometimes too repetitive. She often goes into long paragraphs about what emotions are NOT, which I get is important, but I wish it was more science and less history lessons; hoping the last half gets into more neuroscience.

This book is genius. So many things that apply to the real world too, unlike many psychology books which you believe are making good points and science but which you don't realistically see yourself applying the knowledge within. This book has genuinely changed the way I see...everything. It's therapy without being a therapy book, teaching you how you can recontextualize experiences/perception/memories to heal minds

Every time I open this book it breaks my mind. It seems to be one of the most sensible theories of how our body-brain-mind operates.
