Life and other stories
5 books that changed my life.
What? So jewelry can´t heal my life and make me better by wearing it for one month!?
And no angels are coming down from heavens to save me and give me strength? So i really have to get up of my ass and do some work myself? oh man, that is annoying.
Jewelry is this little beautiful piece that sits around you neck or your arm, and together with your affirmation, will be your daily reminder of your dreams, worth and goals. But my jewelry is just one piece of the puzzle. The puzzle that will help you to become the best version of yourself. You still have to do some work yourself. Dammit Nicole, I was hoping you were giving me a easy quick fix here 🙂
No no not today 😉 Today i will give you an awesome list of books, all of which gave me a better understanding of myself and life, but they have also taught me that life can be lived happily, differently and colorful. And the most important thing: I can live after my own rules.
My life has not been easy, and sometimes it still isn’t. I will doubt myself, sometimes I am depressed and filled with fear, but I have learned so many things by reading books and traveling, that now my tool box is full of tricks to get me out of the ”black hole” quicker.
Here is my top 5 favorite books, that can help you take that next important step in your life.
Pussy – By Regena Thomashauer.
I love this book and the name; PUSSY, it was recommended by one of my favorite yoga teachers here in Bali, Emily (YOU ROCK). The book is about taking your power back as a woman, finding your way back to you femininty and your sexualtity. Highly recommended if you have some issues in that area.
Eat Pray Love – By Elizabeth Gilbert
Yes, it is a real story and yes she travel to Bali, and no i never met her (but i want to), and no that was not the reason why I travel to Bali the first time. The book is about Liz, a woman from new York, who had it all or so it seemed. She ended up crying on the bathroom floor, then and there she decided to take her power back, give up her home and marriage and travel to Italy, India and Bali. This book is really good for you, if you’re stuck in life, full of fear and don’t know who you are any longer.
You can heal your life – By Louise L. Hay.
A book about self love, she is going deep about that feeling ” I AM NOT GOOD ENOUGH” and affirmations, and everybody who knows me, know how much I love affirmations. This book I found in yoga barn in Ubud, I felt so lost, after some problems with my business, that I started doubting myself and was thinking: “is this because I am not good enough?” So get that book if you suffer from low self esteem. A cool bonus in the book, it has a whole list of physical problems, that relates to emotional problems, and then a solution on how to fix it.
The four agreements – By Don Miguel Ruiz
This book was recommended to by a dear friend of mine, this is the ONE book you have to read – it gives you some beautiful life lessons and some really nice guidelines how to live life from the heart – MUST READ.
Big Magic – By Elizabeth Gilbert
There she is again Miss Liz, I just love the way she writes, her humor, and the way she makes life so understandable. Well this book is for you who want to follow your passion or want to rediscover what you really love to do.
