Just what I needed.

I plan to listen to this over and over. Such great life reminders. Thank you.

I needed this more than I knew

Wow! I’m planning to listen again, because this one hit me in the solar plexus, in the best, possible way. Thank you. I will definitely be recommending this book in Audible or written format. What a treat.
Thank you, again.

How to navigate this nervous planet

So glad I picked this up from Audible.

I’ve been following Matt Haig on Twitter for quite a while and it was not long ago when I decided to finally check out his books. I’m yet to read/listen to Midnight Library.

Anyway, this book - Notes on a Nervous Planet - is formatted the way the title speaks of itself. It’s like a compilation of notes arranged into bigger chunks or categories. Although I listened to the entire book in just a matter of a week, I think there’s value in going back to it and pondering upon the topics Matt has presented.

I love his affirmations and I do believe that this has somehow changed my worldview even by just a bit.

Very wise

Well done. Thorough. Good research but most importantly very timely, practical and helpful.

It’s good to be spending time and energy on mental health. It’s under appreciated and more important than ever.

Interesting and Thought Provoking

Excellent look into the mind of a chronic depressive with anxiety disorder and a description of how today's world, with its technology and social media demands can easily exacerbate the condition. The text and story are good and I understand the author reading this insightful and very personal work, but at times I found him difficult to understand or follow.

Definitely worth a listen and definitely put some of his very clear and concise ideas into practice.
