Mantras are something I’ve wanted to read more about as I haven’t really used these in the past.
This gorgeous little book provides a mantra a day, giving plenty of inspiration and ideas on how to begin a daily practice.

Thank you Quatro and NetGalley for this ARC. This would make a lovely gift.

This book is a beautiful book that contains 365 sayings (mantras), one for each day of the year. It is a wonderful resource for anyone to use to start his/her day. The mantras are short, and easily read to start your day off on the right "note". The only thing that I would change would be to add a journal section to each page so that reader could write what they found insightful or how they used the tip throughout the day. I recommend this book to anyone working on personal development. It is an easy "bite sized" way to work on yourself each day. Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the advance review copy in exchange for my honest review.

I loved this book, and even though it is a one mantra a day, I still read the whole thing. I feel this is a great gift book for someone really needing love and positive affirmations that can be given anytime of the year.

Everyday Mantras is a lovely book full of inspiring messages for each day of the year.

The book is split into four seasons with each of the days paragraphs being vaguely relevant to the time of the year so they always seem perfect for the time in which you are reading them. The illustrations are nice with a new colour theme for each season. Each day is based on a paragraph which is inspiring and good to contemplate over the day.

This book is full of lovely mantras that are a great way to start the day off positively. A lovely read.

A lovely book, which really does make you think and appreciate everything. I think you could easily dip into it when you want despite it having dates/months on it as to when to read.

Thank you NetGalley for my complimentary copy in return for my honest review.

Great book for any age! I loved reading through the mantras and feel this would be perfectly used daily to give yourself reassurance. I could see myself purchasing this in the future.

Everyday Mantras by Aysel Gunar is a beautiful book. Meant to be read and reflected on daily, each mantra includes a short paragraph to guide the reader to thoughtful reflection. With a spirit of flexibility and acceptance, the reader will realize it is acceptable that some daily mantras hold great personal meaning while others might not resonate as deeply. Some topics are thoughtful, some are intense, some are hard to swallow, and some are light and fun.

I created a list of topics that resonated with me:
Not letting perfection stop us from reaching our goals. Keeping hope, asking for help, being bold, inspiring others, owning our mistakes, apologizing
Openness, gentleness, struggle, persistence, flexibility, acceptance
Stretching, appreciating cozy socks, warming up with hearty soup

Truly, every reader will find value in these pages. This book would make a beautiful gift for a friend. Thank you to NetGalley, the author, and publisher Quarto Publishing Group – Rock Point for an advanced copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

I can not like this enough!!! This year after years of suffering from depression and anxiety, I am attempting to get more in tune with my spiritual side and these affirmations have been helping loads every morning. The main one that stood out to me was the one about embracing our imperfections. I love how everything in this book stands out in its own way without infringing on anything else. I would definitely buy this book once it has been published as I feel this will help me tenfold in overcoming my mental health

This book is designed to be read as a page a day - a daily guide to thoughtfulness and setting intentions with the words of affirmations.

I’ve found it really useful to incorporate the daily reading as part of my morning meditation, to sit and think about how it resonates with my own intentions.

I have yet to finish it as I plan to read one page a day for the rest of the year - but am already able to appreciate the messages and reflections that it provides.

It is especially great as a little book of positivity, opening your mind to being optimistic with visualisation, passages that brighten your perspective, and beautiful illustrations throughout which change with the seasons.

If you’re interested in meditation or just general mindfulness then the simplicity of the daily entries can help guide or centre your reflections for the beginning or end of the day.

Uplifting. Insightful and Positive. This book presents a mantra for each day along with a bite size explanation. I found reading these each morning a really helpful and inspiring way to start my day. This is a lovely book containing lots of self growth and self care advice. It’s also designed beautifully and is filled with energising colours and images. I would definitely recommend it to any one trying to practice self growth and take a spiritual path.

I find this book quite helpful and calming to read. The content has been meticulously planned and presented. The pages are calming to look at and the lines are affirmative as they ought to be like the title says.

I need this book to assist in my daily journal record.

Thank you, Rage Kinselsperger, for the advance reading copy.

A beautiful look though how to utilize your inner light in life and how to make your life brighter. Pun intended. Journal prompts to guide you through the seasons.. Highly recommend. Especially loved the reflection to true life to humanize my feelings and relate. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Everyday Mantras is a great book for anyone who is looking to add to their daily self-care routine or anyone who just wants to add a little more positivity to their day. Each mantra has a focus for the day and advice for how to implement the focus. With a mantra for each day of the year, it's a read that you can use to start off your day and read over and over again.

I really enjoyed this book. The length of the mantras was just perfect. They had the length of a thought if that makes any sense. I liked the way they were written and the messages that were given. This book is exactly what the title suggests and if you’re looking for something simple and quick to help you be more mindful this is it.

Everyday Mantras by Aysel Gunar contains beautiful seasonally themed mantras for happiness, strength, and peace. Gunar provides sweet and gentle reminders that we can all benefit from at any time. Whether it’s a reminder to celebrate your small wins, release stress, or understanding that delay happens, each piece encourages us to live in the present moment and tap into our best self.

I really appreciate the imagery in this book. Everyday Mantras begins with January and there are some darker colors to represent winter, then transitions into beautiful pastels for spring, and vibrant colors for summer. I truly believe we can all greatly benefit from Everyday Mantras. It’s the perfect book to keep on your bedside table and refer to each morning and night. You can even pick a random page for inspiration it doesn’t have to be the exact month/day you’re in. Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group for this eARC in exchange for my honest review.

Everyday Mantras by Aysel Gunar is beautifully designed daily motivational mantra/journal book that would make a great gift for anyone. This is definitely the type of book I would gift to someone, whether on their birthday or as an any occasion type of gift. I love the cover of the book and I love that the daily mantras are short and quick reads, that takes up less than five minutes to read.

Beautiful book containing 365 affirmations & mantras, one for each day of the year. These entries would be perfect to start each day with. Setting goals for the day, focusing on intentions, and speaking these things into existence. On the other hand, the entires would also make a nice starting point of reflections from the day each evening. Each of the entries would serve as a wonderful prompt for journaling and organizing your thoughts. Nature is heavily featured throughout this book, which I absolutely love. So much positivity, hope, and growth inspiration on these pages. I do wish the book contained a spot for notes and possibly a wrap up of each month as a whole. Four stars. Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group- Rock Point for an egalley in exchange for my honest review.
