It’s Your Weirdness that Makes You Wonderful

Do you know how amazing you are? Celebrate that which makes you uniquely you! According to author and artist Kate Allan, anxiety, worry, and hopelessness are simply signs of “a misbehaving brain doing misbehaving brain stuff. They’re like a bug, a glitch.” Allan, who deals with anxiety and depression, understands firsthand what it’s like to deal with challenging feelings. A few years ago, she started a radical kind of self-care—creating animal affirmations. It’s Your Weirdness That Makes You Wonderful offers encouraging words and stress-reducing affirmations paired with original illustrations and prompts to help you process your feelings.

Think of this journal as your “support animal in book form,” as it is a wild and rainbow-colored menagerie of creatures who are there for you, anytime, anywhere!
