You will be happy to know that the whole game changes when an empath becomes an empowered empath, and this book will help you figure out how to become one!

This book warns against narcissists by teaching you to recognize them, recognize their subtle tricks, and showing you how to break this vicious circle. Your boundaries are not negotiable. This is the right book that can help you take back your life.

For many of us suffering from negative emotions and negative beliefs, as well as poor social skills, it’s difficult to adopt the positive mindset and confidence we need to take our careers and personal lives further. This is because we lack the understanding to make the much-needed internal shift that allows us to sustain new habits, beliefs, and productive behaviors. To make these "internal" changes in how we think, feel, and act, we need to be aware of where the fear that drives our "default" behaviors stems from. This is why you need Detox Your Mind Now.
