No Self-Hate

This coloring book is designed to reduce anxiety through simple, repetitive creative work. Its pages pair endearing animal companions with uplifting messages, making it a natural fit for a daily routine built around self-care. The prompts invite readers to check in with themselves by asking when they last felt creative, self-assured, or connected to others, and they offer ways to strengthen those qualities.

Because the finished illustrations can be hung on a wall, the book also works as an art project in its own right, which makes it suitable for artists as well as anyone looking for a calming pastime. The author is an artist and the bestselling writer of Thera-pets, who goes by thelatestkate online. Having lived with anxiety and depression herself, she knows how much a creative outlet and a reassuring message can help.

Bringing both ideas together, No Self-Hate is presented as art therapy for quieting the noise in your mind.
