We are not aware about emotionally hygienic practices that will help us sustain our mental health. This is exactly what this book provides. It gives us very simple tips and tools to manage our minds, emotionally hygienic practices that we could follow to save our minds and be healthy not only at a physical level but also at emotional and mental levels.
