Book Review: Think Like a Monk by Jay Shetty

It took me over a year to read this fab book, which is no reflection on the book - that's simply life for a busy mum! I finally finished it on holiday in Greece, after it had traveled the globe with me to Dubai, France, Portugal, and home. 

Jay Shetty's wisdom is a game-changer! Filled with life-changing advice, relatable stories, and powerful mindset shifts, this book has inspired me to slow down, reflect, and discover more joy and balance.

What I loved most about Think Like a Monk is its authenticity. Jay shares personal stories and monk principles in a way that feels both intimate and universal. The book is filled with actionable takeaways that can help us navigate the chaos of modern life with calm, clarity, and compassion.

Despite my slow pace of reading which I wouldn't recommend as its far too stop / start, every moment spent with this book was worth it. Life as a busy mum often got in the way, but every chapter offered valuable insights and reflections.

Jay's wisdom is not just theoretical; it's practical and grounded in real-life application. This book encourages us to slow down, reflect, and build a life of meaning and joy. It's an invitation to shift our mindset and adopt habits that foster growth, resilience, and fulfillment.

To all the busy mums out there, finding time to read can feel impossible, but it's so worth it. Let's make it a priority to do things we love and invest in ourselves. You deserve it! 

I wholeheartedly recommend Think Like a Monk to anyone looking to thrive in their personal and professional lives. It’s a beacon of positivity and a guide to living with greater purpose and joy.

Let's embrace these teachings and continue our journey towards a happier, more balanced life!
