Reading is a powerful way to learn new skills. At Scribe, we proudly publish a wide array of nonfiction, including some fact-filled books that aim to inform and educate readers about various aspects of wellbeing.
If your new years’ resolutions for 2023 include looking after your physical or emotional health and wellbeing but you don’t know how exactly to start making improvements, we have four book recommendations to help you start your year with purpose.
So, if your new year’s resolution was about...
Improving your physical health
In Why Does It Still Hurt? Paul Biegler, a science journalist and former doctor who has been on his own pain journey, investigates the true source of chronic pain — our brain’s so-called neuroplasticity — and emerging therapies, including cognitive therapy and graded exercise exposure, that take advantage of that same neuroplasticity to rewire the brain and end the suffering.
Looking after your mental health
From Jill Stark, bestselling author of Happy Never After and Higher Sobriety, When You're Not OK is an emotional first-aid kit for your body, mind, and soul, written by someone who’s been there too.
Finally figuring out your skincare routine
By revealing the science and exposing commercial tricks, The Scandinavian Skincare Bible challenges how we look at beauty and empowers us to lay the foundation for healthy, beautiful skin.
Getting into meditation or practising being more present
Whether you have no experience with a reflective practice or are an experienced practitioner, Aware is a hands-on guide that will enable you to become more focused and present, as well as more energised and emotionally resilient in the face of stress and the everyday challenges life throws your way.
These books are now available online and in bookshops now. Happy new year!
