We are living in an age where no one has confidence in their own mental health. Because everyone is facing difficulty in one form or another, finding the courage to speak up about your own struggles can be tough. This is an era in which even taking care of one’s own mental health is something generally done alone. How can we manage anxiety, worries, anger, and fear and take care of ourselves today? The author of this book says that the solution is to be your own pharmacist for the soul. Your brain acts as a sort of "pharmacy" that dispenses medicine throughout the day, and you can dispense the medicine you need without relying on external methods. Unlike ordinary pharmacists who fill doctors' prescriptions using the medicine at their disposal, “pharmacists for the souls” can dispense the medicine they need from their own brain. What makes this book stand out is that it offers life-oriented prescriptions. It allows readers to heal their hearts and souls by keeping track of their daily moods, creating self-dialogue that instills courage, and designing a daily schedule for serotonin secretion.
