Practical Advice for Abstract Moments
If you're looking for a how-to book on getting through life's hard moments, this is your book. I was going through a rough time (I was trying to move out of a rough situation to another state with a friend but ended up not because I couldn't find employment). This book helped me so much to just process and see the practical ways to sit with my emotions and feel them. For reference, I'm a Christian and I also leaned heavily on the Bible during this time. This book didn't take away from my religios processing during this time, but instead added to it.

Immensely Helpful Books
I started reading The Mountain Is You and was immediately impressed and inspired. I began highlighting and pinning paragraphs in my Kindle version, and backing up to re-read parts because I wanted to really think about what I was reading. I slowed my reading down by finding time to read it quietly, out loud. I bought the paperback. Then I bought When You're Ready, This Is How You Heal. Fantastic! Wiest's books are positive, constructive, encouraging self-reflection and cheering you on to the rest of your life. My life was in pieces a few years ago and I've been doing the work to realize life can still be worthwhile, that I have value as a human being, and that it's not too late to reclaim it and move forward. These books came along at the right time. I'd been stuck "in between" the past and the future for awhile. I'm showing up for life now. I'm moving forward. I'm enjoying each day. I'm living NOW. I'm not saying these books solved all of my problems. I've been doing other things to get my life back as well. And it's taken some time. But I highly recommend these books.

I am totally blown away!!
Wisdom at its finest! The wisdom contained in these pages is literally life changing! I read a lot of books on self help, philosophy, psychology and stoicism and this book has all that and more. The author matter of factly puts her incites together with little fan fare or fancy words! You will not find any psycho babble or college lectures on the workings of medulla oblongata or prefrontal cortex in this book. And that is very refreshing! Just good common sense wisdom! I have underlined half of the book if not more! This book has really opened my eyes to why I do what I do, and more importantly, what I now need to do to move forward with my life. I always felt there was just something I wasnโt grasping that would help my life make more sense. Something that would make my life better. I have not found that something! Most books have all the good stuff at the front of the book and half way through you are bored with the book. Not this one! I kept thinking there canโt be anymore to learn and then I would turn the page and some nugget of wisdom would leap off the page! Read this and heal your life!!!

I think its worth it but be aware of typos :)
There are some real gems in this book, I've read the other books by the author and I'm definitely a fan. However, I've found at least a couple typos in each book and there are sentences that can really throw you off of the idea/point she is trying to make. The one that really messed my brain up was "This is something that people who have never been painfully hung up on something." The sentence that follows it doesn't help either, but I just ignored that part, and the passage was fine. I'm not too picky about typos, as long as I find something valuable in the book it doesn't bother me much. The pictures attached show the ones I've found and if those don't bother you, I say get the book. A enjoyed it nonetheless.

It's not fluffy or overly poetic itโs real, raw, and deeply affirming.
This book is a soul-deep experience. It is not just a book itโs a quiet companion for anyone going through a transformation, healing from pain, or learning how to truly come back to themselves. Brianna Wiest has such a gentle yet powerful way with words. Every page feels like sheโs speaking directly to you like sheโs been exactly where you are and is holding your hand through the process. It's not fluffy or overly poetic itโs real, raw, and deeply affirming. If youโre ready to heal, to grow, and to let go of whatโs been weighing you down, this book will meet you where you are and lovingly guide you forward. Iโll be returning to it again and again

If youโre struggling mentally and donโt know where to start, this one is for you
Absolutely a great read. I was in a terrible place in life and came across this book while trying to find โsomethingโ to help my mindset. Definitely opened my eyes and mind to a whole new perspective. Will probably read again each year or just when I need a good pick me up for when Iโm at my lowest. If youโre struggling mentally and donโt know where to start, this one is for you.

Healing Journey and Growth Mindset
I found this book back in June on Tik Tok and at the time, decided not to purchase the book. A few weeks later, I did and I must say, it's well worth it. Each chapter is broken into easy fragments to read and understand. I haven't read the book all the way through, however, I enjoy only reading it when I need/want to and I have found that it aligns so well with the growth I've been making this summer. It's not just a book on healing but a well written novel on understanding our emotions, sticking to our paths, remembering our growth and current progress in our lives, and challenging our abilities to let go of people, experiences, and even memories that aren't helping us move forward. I've already suggested it to several people so take this as a sign to give it a chance like I did back in July, you won't regret it.

Un classique ร avoir!
Un classique du dev perso ร avoir dans sa bibliothรจque ! Brianna Wiest ne dรฉรงoit jamais Le plus: se lit petit ร petit car il sโagit de plusieurs chapitres sur Plusieurs thรฉmatiques! Donc idรฉal pour ceux qui aiment lire doucement ou veulent se mettre doucement ร lโanglais. Il nous amรจne ร rรฉflรฉchir sur diffรฉrents sujets er aborder des points de vues que nous nโaurions pas forcรฉment eu avant.

Amazing...
Amazing.... This is my first book from Brianna W and I can say I read this book at exactly the right time. I bought it a while back, but for some reason I didn't read it. And wow I read it exactly when I needed it the most: just like the title says 'when you ready, this is how you heal. Amazing, amazing book. Every word resonated and it is like talking to a friend, simple yet deep and meaningful. I will be purchasing more books from her. So glad I came across this book. Thank you

beautiful book that is easy to read
I got htis book after going through something horrific and traumatic. It's very easy to read, has small chapters, and reads like the author is having a chat with you. I have since recommended it to all my friends and anyone going through a trough time in their own lives. I think this book is best suited to someone who has experienced somethinga devestating in their lives, where they are through the acute phase but feel stuck about how to get through the rest of their lives. It helped me to move forward and start to hope for happiness again.
