Psycho-Cybernetics, A New Way to Get More Living Out of Life by Maxwell Maltz

5.0

This book is incredible! One of my top reads of the year (& probably ever). It has such powerful messages that would benefit anyone who cares to listen ❤️ Body image and getting to know yourself on such a deep level can be such a scary but beautiful journey.

If you’re into energy healing, mindfulness, finding your purpose, and finding your truest self, this book is 10/10. I am not kidding when I said I FLEW through this book and wanted to highlight, star & underline every passage. This will be a book that I reflect on frequently, revisit, and spread the word about. I am so happy a new friend introduced me to this read!

Here are some words of wisdom I wrote down:
▫️why not have nostalgia for the future instead of the past?
▫️holding a low opinion of ourselves is not a virtue, it’s a vice.
▫️self-esteem comes from an appreciation of yourself for what you are.
▫️you are not inferior. You are not superior. You are simply you.
▫️if our ideas and mental images concerning ourselves are distorted or unrealistic, then our reaction to our environment will likewise be inappropriate.
▫️positive thinking works when it is consistent with the person’s self image.

& soooo many more! I wasn’t kidding. This book is true gold and I encourage anyone/everyone to pick it up if it sparks even the littlest interest.
