Discover Yourself

Andreea Raicu wrote Discover Yourself after a serious nervous breakdown pulled her out from behind her public persona as a celebrity. Looking back, she concludes that chasing perfection does real harm to a person. As an alternative she offers this book, a kind of map for looking after yourself in body, mind and spirit.

The book reads as a candid journal of her own experiences, shared with the reader. Her message is that your body is an ally rather than an enemy. The beauty each person carries becomes visible once they learn to live consciously in the present and to feel thankful for every new day.

The underlying idea is that loving the person who looks back at you from the mirror, the closest friend you have, has to start with getting to know yourself.
