Gemma StylesWhy Am I Like This?: My Brain Isn’t Broken (and Neither Is Yours)

One of the most important books everyone should read to understand their brain, and therefore, themselves. I listened to the audiobook and it was my first in a long time. Really grateful to Gemma for all the hard work and love she put into this one.. i love that she made some very scientific concepts as easy to understand as possible, and added so many relatable and hilarious examples in the middle to make it entertaining and again, easy to understand for all audiences. I do admit that so much of scientific information at once was slightly overwhelming... But I believe this is the book one can carry and come back to for a long time to read again, understand, research, learn and work on self as we grow.It also came around at the right time for me because so many people on the internet, or more specifically social media (influencers, therapists, counsellors, mentors, astrologers etc) have a different say on How we should be and What we should do to lead a peaceful life - which I personally find quite overwhelming. So it was extremely refreshing to start with a simple Why with this book. That's one of her qualities I really admire, she doesn't necessarily tell us what to do but rather takes the role of a student who does all the work and conducts all the sessions and allows us to bear the fruit of her hard work and research. I love her approach of learning together and doing better together while inspiring more people to join in. That's something I've consistently observed and loved on her podcast as well called Good Influence wherein she brings people who're well versed with a particular subject, and tell her and us all about it to create more awareness and inspire us do better in our daily lives.Overall, would highly recommend this book to every person of any age, everyone can take something valuable from this book.
