Iām making my way through all of Stan Tatkinās books and I canāt overstate how much they are helping my life.
I started with āYour Brain on Love: The Neurobiology of Healthy Relationshipsā and itās a book Iām sure I will re-read forever.
Iāve listened to it on audible as well- it is a GREAT listen, narrated by the author.
Whether you are single, in a happy relationship, or in a relationship youād like to improve in some way, the information in this book (and any of his other books) will be helpfulš

Pasted is a copy of my Goodreads review:
5/5 Stars
FANTASTIC!
One of the better nonfictions Iāve *listened* to in a long while. The audiobook is narrated by the author herself and I couldnāt help but be absolutely charmed by her lovingly neurotic self. Her writing is sublime and the way she delivers the information is straightforward.
While on the surface you might just see this as another book about LSD, this book actually dives into the war on drugs, criminal justice system, and healthcare industry - all intermixed with various musings on the self, love, and life. Ayeletās take on her journey with LSD is both academic and incredibly personal. Her knowledge and power is undeniable - in the classroom, the court room, and this book.
She structures the book as if the start of each chapter is a personal journal entry as she records her experiences during the month-long experiment. From there the chapter then takes a life of its own, and I thoroughly enjoyed diving into each rabbit hole with her.
By the end, I found myself asking - when was it that I had a really good day?

So I read way too much fiction so Im trying to balance it out by listening to nonfiction audiobooks that will give me some life skills hehe. I started with this book (spotify audiobook linked) and i really like it so far! my mom recommended it to me and its really interesting so far because it follows Adlerian Psychology and I just love learning about different psychological perspectives and such. Theres also another book called The Courage to be Happy by the same authors and its definitely going to be my next listen.

I love finding wisdom in trite, intentionally wise and clever places (ex. Musicals) I feel like Iām always in a place where I could learn or know more about myself or why I am internally structured the way I am. Reading self help books can be a vibe and it is one to me. Just read āThe Mountain is Youā that one was nice, āAtomic Habitsā is amazing, love Joe Dispenza across the board.

There are SO many great series out here these days, and this isnāt anything new or groundbreaking, but Iāve been watching Adventure Time since I was a little kid- I have watched it in full dozens of times at least.
Iām amazed every viewing at how I am able to understand new profound themes along with new levels of silliness.
The creator is basically a genius and I think itās one of the most beautiful and underrated cartoons everrrrr

Iām so excited to use it while traveling tooš
