I loved this self care book. I resonated with many of the things she talked about and I'm excited to try some of these tips and ideas that she came up with. If you're Latina or even half like I am this book is for you. I'm excited to share this book with other family members and friends. Thank you netgalley, the publisher and the author for allowing me to read this book.

"Self-Care for Latinas" by Raquel Reichard is a breath of fresh air in the self-help genre. Reichard, with her warm and relatable writing style, seamlessly blends practical advice with cultural insights, making it a must-read for Latinas navigating the complexities of self-care. From embracing ancestral wisdom to navigating the challenges unique to Latina identity, the book serves as a compassionate guide.

What sets this book apart is its genuine understanding of the intersectionality Latinas face in today's world. Reichard covers a range of topics, from mental health and self-love to nurturing relationships and building resilience. Her anecdotes and personal experiences make the advice feel like it's coming from a trusted friend.

The book doesn't just offer generic tips; it tailors self-care to the Latina experience, making it accessible and empowering. Whether you're looking for a quick pick-me-up or a deeper exploration of self-discovery, "Self-Care for Latinas" is a delightful and informative companion that celebrates the strength and beauty of Latina women. Reichard's affirming words create a space where self-care becomes a celebration of identity, making this book a valuable addition to any Latina's self-help journey.

I was very excited for this book. Roughly 80% of my student population is Hispanic/latinx.

When going through this the text I had hoped for more interactive pieces or shall I say a workbook style but it was full on text. I do feel the text was relevant and covered a lot

A nice and easy read which encourages to put yourself first.

It includes a collection of self-care tips (such as Feel all your emotions, Ask for a hug, Date yourself, ...) and all of them are grouped into three parts: for body, mind and spirit.

It is beneficial not only for latinas, but other nationality women who are interested in self-care and who loves to know other cultures.

The cover of the book is fabulous. I would love to have some colorful pictures inside the book as well.

Thank you NetGalley, Adams Media, Raquel Reichard for an advanced e-copy of Self-Care for Latinas
