Atlas of the Heart: Mapping Meaningful Connection and the Language of Human Experience by Brené Brown

emotional reflective slow-paced

5.0

God finishing this really is bittersweet. I wanted it to last forever. Actually, I want to read it and keep rereading it until I’ve memorized every single page. Maybe then I can internalize how important it is to match the proper language with emotion. 

I remember going into this book totally blind, not knowing what it was about. When Brené started talking in the intro about how we need an encyclopedia of emotions so we can use their definitions as a map to guide our truest lives I thought “wow that sounds incredible, I’m gonna go see if there’s a book like that as soon as I finish this one.” Of course, after a few more paragraphs I realized that’s what *this* book is! I’ve never been more excited to find out what I was reading about.
