We all need reminders. You don’t leap out of bed knowing you are amazing and about to have an incredible day. All of us have a lot of demands, pressures, to-dos and responsibilities. We find ourselves rushing around, working hard to please others. Often we find ourselves at the back of our own bus, having made everyone else happy but our own damn self. Then you go and beat yourself up about it. Let’s stop that, shall we?

In Badass Affirmations, positive living and affirmation queen Becca Anderson reminds you that you are pretty darn great. She will help you heal scars from bad childhoods and relationships and stop the self-defeating scripts that loop through your unconscious brain. Even nice moms and dads perpetrate parenting errors that leave marks on our souls.
But, we can overcome with the right mix of badass affirmations. Every day and in every way, you can learn the art of self-affirmation.

Read Badass Affirmations and:
·      Learn the habit of affirming yourself daily
·      Experience a life filled with love, joy, fulfillment and satisfaction
·      Take control of your destiny
·      Strengthen your self-esteem
 
“This book is something you can use as a sort of coffee table book or something you can carry with you every day and no matter how you use it, there can be benefits for you and your daily life.”—Nerdy Girl Express
