The author invites readers on a \u201cjourney of self-recovery where [they\u2019ll] know with every molecule within [them] that [they] are worthy.\u201d S\u00e1nn\u00ed discusses her training in practices like Neuro-Linguistic Programming and her experience working as a personal coach for women. She also details her firsthand experience with challenges like finding oneself in a \u201cself-imposed prison of negativity.\u201d In this work, the author encourages her audience to discover new conceptions of themselves. Readers are advised to examine what types of thoughts they give their time to and to take a look at their pasts through the perspective of an inner child. The journey is not always easy; to embrace one\u2019s inner child, one must \u201ccome face to face with her and really see her.\u201d Chapters end with actionable steps, like journaling from question prompts such as, \u201cWhat are ten things that you love about yourself?\u201d S\u00e1nn\u00ed writes from a faith-based, Islamic perspective\u2014there are occasional quotations from the Qur\u2019an, such as a verse about repentance that acts to remind readers that \u201cpast mistakes don\u2019t define us if we choose for them not to.\u201d The text progresses in a friendly, conversational style (the author often addresses the reader directly as \u201cmy lovely\u201d). S\u00e1nn\u00ed emphasizes that \u201cyou, and only you, have control of your thoughts and feelings; and only you have control over whether you\u2019ll allow your past to define your future.\u201d Self-help readers will have likely encountered some of the book\u2019s advice before; concepts like journaling and learning to say no (even if \u201csaying \u2018no\u2019 is a new realm for you\u201d) are standard fare for the genre. Still, the welcoming tone for specifically Muslim women helps to set the book aside from similar works. Ultimately, the author\u2019s warmth shines through as she wholeheartedly guides her readers to new versions of themselves.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
