Recharge Boosting Your Mental Battery, One Conversation at a time is a great book to keep on hand as in the book shelf, coffee table or bag. This book is ideal for increasing your knowledge on how to self help in recharging your mental health batteries. The author goes through methods and techniques on how to recharge with knowledge of how to understand on where you are in your mental state. Gives advice on techniques to balance your energy, emotions and anxiety and other issues due to stress at work, home and social interactions. I recommend those who would like to learn on how to balance and recharge your batteries.

This book is a great resource. The premise of the book is that conversations (even check-in conversations with yourself!) are an important way to maintain mental health, and that one way to think about your status is as a “battery.” I found this metaphor helpful and easy to grasp, and I’m sure others will too. David Ko interviewed quite a few people about how they stay charged or recharge their mental and physical battery. While some of the interviews were shorter than I expected, he always expanded on them when reflecting later. I love that he included interviews with a variety of people about a variety of mental health strategies. Additionally, the book has specific sentence frames to ask questions about others and to express your needs. This book has information and encouragements that could be helpful to pretty much anyone! It is also well-written, engaging, and easy to read.

Thank you to NetGalley and Forbes Books for the free eARC. I post this review with my honest opinions. This review will be posted to Amazon upon the book’s publication.
