Meditations on Self-Love: Daily Wisdom for Healing, Acceptance, and Joy

This is the book I use in my morning practice daily, recommend constantly, give as gifts frequently, add to my Instagram stories, reflect on, and am so grateful for. This book really helped me turn around my focus and improve my mindfulness and mental health through creating positive morning routines that I look forward to and seek out. There’s no wrong way to use this book. I’ve started it in order, skipped around, openly randomly, read until something resonated with me…. My copy is highlighted, written in and goes with me everywhere.

The beginning dedication in this book had me in tears, and it continued from there. This book takes you through the depths of every day challenges and helps you to see the other side, the upside. It leaves you inspired and motivated to find your inner soul and guidance to reach peace and love within yourself. It is a practical tool you could use to “tap in” to learn stories about yourself you never knew existed. This book reminds you that the only person ever worth knowing is yourself. From there other relationships can grow and flourish organically. It is clear the author, Laurasia, is connected to a higher power and shares her wisdom authentically. This book is not only for those interested in meditation, this is an every day practical book anyone can use to steer them through life. One of the best books I have ever read!

Laurasia is an open, honest, beautiful meditation teacher whom I have had the pleasure of taking countless classes with at The Den. I was so excited to purchase my copy of Meditations on Self-Love because I know it is truly something that comes from her heart. The meditations are very simple and I find that they are something you can do anytime any place if you can get a few minutes to yourself! My favorite thing to do is ask Spirit (use whatever higher power of your choosing) what meditation is right for me in that moment and flip to that page. I believe this book is perfect for any stage, whether you be a newbie to meditation or have been meditating for quite some time this book is perfect :)

Love this book and I'm so glad I bought it. I've even bought it for a few friends and I wont stop talking about it, I'm 32 and I love how relatable the passages are. I only recently started meditating fully the last year and it's been such a game changer for me but a lot of times it can be hard to find more of those modern twists on meditation and ways of looking at things. Laurasia does just that with this book, I try to read a passage any time before I leave the house to think of what was said in it as I go through my day to bring me back to myself anytime I get lost, angry, frustrated or just bored. I also try to read a couple before I meditate now which I feel has really upped my practice. I am so thankful to have this book in my life and I would recommend it for anyone!

I keep this book next to my bed and read it often in the morning, or before bed or if I get mid day anxiety. I met Laurasia 3 years ago at the Den and was drawn how her Buddhist approach. Meditation can seem so far and unknown on the outside and Laurasia’s approach makes meditation do-able for anyone. She writes with ease and you can feel the compassion in her words.

Laurasia's honest, authentic, endlessly compassionate, speak from the heart voice is one that will soon become a household name. We've all heard about the need for "Self-Love" in vague cliche forms, but Laurasia is not only the living embodiment of this practice, she knows how to break down what self- love actually means into layman's terms and gives 365 specific action steps you can take at any given moment. Written in a flexible use style, with the ability to jump into any page and reflect for 5 mins, this book is a resource tool you can return to time and time again. Do yourself a favor and get one for your desk, your coffee table, your night stand, your car, your purse...any and all places you can pick it up and get a powerful dose of daily self-love!

While I like the content of this book and find it insightful, from the first time I opened this paperback, the interior "spine" cracked open and continues to get worse with every reading. I do read it daily, and soon I'm expecting it to become a loose-leaf book.

This is a great little book to pick up and read passages from when you're feeling a little fearful, down or negative. I like and recommend it!

Was so excited for this I couldn’t wait for shipping so the kindle version has been so great. Loving every part of this lovely book so far. Starting my day with this has been a nice mindful way to ease into 2021. Looking forward to getting the paperback version soon.
