The Happiness Project meets So Sad Today in this 'hilariously witty, unflinchingly honest' book from the beloved founder of Words of Women, contemplating the nature of negative emotions and the insights that allowed her to take back control.

Five years ago, Lauren Martin was sure something was wrong with her. She had a good job in New York, an apartment in Brooklyn, a boyfriend, yet every day she wrestled with feelings of inferiority, anxiety and irritability. It wasn't until a chance encounter with a (charming, successful) stranger who revealed that she also felt these things that Lauren set out to better understand the hold that these moods had on her and how she could change them. She began to blog about the wisdom she uncovered. It quickly exploded into an international online community of women who felt like she did: lost, depressed, moody and desirous of change.

Inspired by her audience to press even deeper, The Book of Moods shares Lauren's journey to infuse her life with a sense of peace and stability. With observations that will resonate and inspire, she dives into the universal triggers every woman faces - whether it's a comment from your mother, the relentless grind at your job, days when you wish the mirror had a Valencia filter, or all of the above. Blending cutting-edge science, timeless philosophy, witty anecdotes and effective forms of self-care, Martin has written a powerful, intimate and incredibly relatable chronicle of transformation, proving that you really can turn your worst moods into your best life.

Powerful authentic memoir about moods

I heard about this book on Gretchen Robin's podcast and I was captivated by the opening pages. This is an unflinching honest account of a woman learning to transform her relationship with the cloudscape of her own moods. Absolutely loved it

As a long time fan of the Words of Women Instagram, I couldn’t wait to read this book and it did not disappoint. I LOVED this book - it’s thought provoking and truly life changing for other women whom experience uncontrollable mood swings. I found the chapter on friendship radical to read as I feel this isn’t a subject discussed enough. Martin has created an incredible tool for women, one I know I will continually refer back to in times of need. I can’t wait to read her next book!

I have been following Lauren Martin on Instagram and was receiving her newsletter for years already, so it was only natural to also get her book the moment it was (pre)released. This book is a definite recommendation for anyone struggling with moods (hint: everybody does) as it offers a whole lot of suggestions and tips on how to overcome each and every one. I am on a self-emancipating journey myself, and most things she mentioned in the book I can not only relate to heavily but also found similar coping mechanisms. But especially two areas, family and work, are a huge bucket where I didn't even think about negative routines or beliefs I might hold. And she opened my eyes while at the same time giving me a whole lot of food for thought - and I appreciate that book and her so so much for this.
