I love her and everything she does and this book it’s great. It’s lighter than the rest and so good. It’s about her relationship with exercise but as always so much more. I loved seeing her go through obsessions and dissecting her life with this lenses. Great drawings and insights, truly recommend!

a graphic novel all about family; the beautiful, chaotic, loving, harmful, formative mess it is in all its glory

This book blew me away. I’d seen it all over the instagrams of bookshops in London (Daunt Books in particular promotes it like crazy) but even then I didn’t realise just how rich, nuanced, and self-analytical it would be. Asako Yuzuki is raw and authentic in her depiction of female relationships, in a way that is so real, it’s piercing. From every angle she is able to analyze act of care, how it’s feminised, what it means to give and sacrifice, how that can result in self-negation — and how it ultimately affects all women from all backgrounds, shapes, and sizes. And she *gets* food.

This is my favorite book of all time. Sheila plays with form in such exciting ways. This book is written almost like a screenplay, it follows the main character Shiela as she tries and fails to be a good friend, artist, lover, etc. It’s the sort of book that feels conversational and close to home but sets a strange little fire in you that makes you want to do more and be better. I read it three times last year and keep it by my bedside in case I need reassurance.

Hahahha maybe it is a cult! I loved what I read, I think I got through half of it, the exercises are fun and can give you great insights, but I guess the greatest tool it gives is the morning pages, still do it and it’s great for those who can’t meditate. But I heard there is a curse if don’t finish it and when I dropped some bad things happened so be warned I guess

I like to remember that time is on your side, it will get easier as time goes by just for nature of it. So focusing on going through the day-to-day the best you can while being kind to yourself and letting the days past is what helped me. It’s not easy, you have to go through the grief to come up on the other side. But stick with the things that make your present more bearable and you WILL come up on the other side. For me it was doing things for myself: listening to music, visiting close friends, cooking for myself, going on walks on nature, spending time alone and bored and finding new things I liked and enjoying my own company was life changing. The loneliness is rough but it can be a great teacher (at least I like to think something had to come out of all that pain). I guess it really depends on the break up the narratives you are telling yourself right now, but if you can be mindful about them, observe them, and let go of trying to understand and control everything they get less cruel. Right now you just need to survive and receive some kindness, later on you can build the story around it (Without the fog of the pain around it). And for the love of god cut contact with them, their family and friends, at least for a while. rebuild yourself outside their zone of influence. Show vulnerability if you can, it can bring great support and lending ears, BE KIND TO YOURSELF (although have in mind sometimes over indulgence is not kind). You will get through it, time is on your side.

I don’t know the name exactly but it’s easy and really fun, all you need is cardboard glue and scissors. you can cut up silhouettes and decorate the theater (glued curtains are very cute), then just put a light behind it and play with, improvising or rehearsing and then showing to others, kid of 5 loved it (and so did I)
