Chock full of information, the book is written in a readable format and utilizes the work of others to enhance the professionalism of both the book and the author's own study. With exercises included in each chapter, such as journaling, breathwork, meditation, yoga, practicing gratitude, and silence, the reader is engaged not only through left-brain activities but also through right-brain creativity. The examples from her interviews and her own life make the book more relatable to readers.
