This book was an engaging read. It's less straightforward than some books, but in some ways that's good, because it fits even more situations.
You’re Strong, Smart, and You Got This
Drawings, Affirmations, and Comfort to Help with Anxiety and Depression
It’s not easy to discuss mental health, even though it affects everyone. We want to believe we can handle anything that comes at us, but the reality is we all have good days and bad days. Because of this, it is important to check in with our mental health. Through guided illustrations, author Kate Allan opens the door to discussion about mental health in an approachable and unassuming manner. You’re Strong, You’re Smart, and You Got This is a source of validation and encouragement for those moments when we need a reminder of our worth. By zooming in on mindfulness and prioritizing self-care, Allan expresses how we can get through the hardships we face and come out stronger. View this book on Amazon!
I thought this book had such a cute and heartwarming cover, and that alone could lift my spirits some days. It's a great book of affirmations for people on any part of the emotional spectrum, boosting the emotions of people who are sad and deepening the positive feelings of people having a good day.

This book is obviously religious in nature, but it's also written well enough that it will fit within most faith traditions. For people who want to pray but don't know where to start, this book can provide a great way to collect thoughts in ways that will help you deepen your relationship with God and receive peace.

I liked that this book was focused on the everyday things - it's a strong reminder that we don't have to have an earth-shattering experience to be optimistic. I also like the way that it presented optimism as an adventure!
