Love, Tanya Book Review

Hello World! So I just got back from a week long trip to the UK and the first purchase that I made after I landed was the lovely Tanya Burr's book Love, Tanya.  I read the entire book cover to cover in under four hours and was left with intense feelings of positivity and confidence.  I wasn't totally sure what to expect when I purchased the book, but really enjoy Tanya's blog and Youtube videos so I figured it would be a worthwhile purchase. 

If you are looking for a new coffee or bedside table book this is definitely the one. From her best skincare tips to the ways that she stays happy and confident, there are so many great life lessons to learn from it.  My personal favorite part of the layout of her book is the fill-in pages. They really made me think and get excited about my life.  In each section of her book she has a section where she lists her top ten of something and then has a page for you to record your own thoughts on the subject. 

When I began reading the book I was quite exhausted and not in the best mood, but by the time that I finished it I was beaming with happiness and hope for my future.  She really shows how you can achieve anything that you put your mind to if you have the courage and work ethic to do what it takes to get there. On top of the fantastic chapter about confidence and happiness, she had a great chapter on anxiety. One thing that stuck with me in particular was an exercise that she talked about called "The Five Stages of the Sea"where you imagine the sea incredibly stormy, then slightly calmer, until the fifth is a completely calm sea.  I have already used this calming technique and it certainly worked for me.

On top of generally boosting my confidence and positivity, the book contains some really great recipes as well as amazing make up and skin care tips. She also has a really interesting section on her Youtube career which is very inspiring both for blogging aspirations as well as inspiring a drive for other life goals.

All in all, I have been recommending this book to everyone that I possibly can. Definitely check it out if you are looking for a burst of beauty and positivity in your life.
