A Must-Read for Mental Health in the Wake of COVID
It took me a paralyzing mental breakdown, thousands of dollars in experimental therapy, and a decade of intense trial and error for me to master cognitive performance and emotional well-being. For you? I hope it only takes 100 pages of reading. -Author
Do you feel burnout or exhausted? Are you struggling from brain fog and lack of motivation? Do you feel like you have lost your sense of purpose? Are you feeling overwhelmed or are you looking for ways to simplify your life and become more effective by performing better with less effort?
You’re Welcome addresses these problems and more in a simple, easy to read, and at times, comical manner. Author Rachel Kozy takes us on her personal journey from breakdown to breakthrough, reflecting, dissecting, and providing solutions for each factor that played a role in her mental breakdown. The book is divided into 3 main sections: self-care, emotional health, and alternative methods of healing.
In the first section she transports us to the scene of her breakdown and introduces us to aspects of her physical health that she neglected and includes recommendations on how to improve these areas of your life. Section two is an exploration of childhood development, relationships, communication, boundaries and includes coaches, resources and techniques for you to strengthen or repair weak and damaged connections. In her final section she takes us on a journey around Europe where she used herself as a human guinea pig to explore everything from sensory deprivation chambers and brain mapping, to experimentation with plant medicines. She explains the science and potential benefits of each of these experiences, and provides her honest opinion on who might be able to benefit from them.
Throughout the book Rachel challenges the reader in a unique and entertaining way to evaluate areas of their life where they may need improvement. She then provides a toolkit of resources and direction on how to begin working to improve areas of your life where you may be struggling.
