For anyone who has a hard time making up affirmations or mantras on the fly this book is the perfect match. I love that it helps you form and give meaning to your goals and mantras in a way that feels easy.

This book presented 75 mantras, or affirmations, for positivity, creativity, joy, strength, love, and peace. As a very busy nurse and military medic, I appreciated the guidance and reminders and tried to embody them.

Not what I was expecting. This book is more like affirmations than mantras. Thanks to NetGalley, the author and the publisher for the ARC of this book in return for my honest review. Receiving the book in this manner had no bearing on my review.

So much positivity and great help to teach you or remind you how important mantras are. I think this is a great book and have dipped into it 3 or 4 times already since finishing

One that I’m sure I’m going to keep coming back to over and over again. Loved it! I’ll be gifting this to my clients who find mantras tricky.

This book does exactly what it says on the tin. If you're looking for daily/weekly reminders then it's perfect. Mantras to live by and to start to work towards. I've been learning to meditate and this book was perfect to accompany.

This was just ok. I was hoodwinked but the great graphic design of the cover, but I am not really sold on the content. Such is life..

This was disappointing. I was expecting the whole book but only received the first chapter. I feel I can’t really review a book based on the first chapter.

Find Your Mantra is an excellent little book with 75 of Aysel Gunar's, the maker of a famous mantra braclet company, most requested and cherished mantras. Each mantra is accompanied by a mantra action, something you can do to embody the spirit of the sentiment. This is followed by the mantra benefit, what you can expect to feel or gain by using the specific mantra in your everyday life. Many of the mantras in this book called to me. There is a mantra here for every situation in life. Ultimately the use of mantras gives us more gratitude and appreciation for the life around us including our own selves. I highly recommend this book for anyone who is curious about, or in search of the perfect mantra.

Find Your Mantra: Inspire and Empower Your Life with 75 Positive Affirmations by Aysel Gunar is a great beginner's guide to help get a reader started with the use of mantras and affirmations. Within the book, you are given a mantra and actions that you can to to incorporate them into your daily lives, along with including the benefits. It's best to approach the book with an open mind. With this being more of a beginner's introduction, the content is simple and direct, with no full side information beyond the mantras and their actions.

My rating is more based on the NetGalley copy that I received.
The formatting in the copy that I'd received was horrible. Some of the mantras were in the pictures featured in the book, but many of them were cut off and nothing I did allowed me to see the image as a whole, so some of the mantras weren't available for me to read.

Find Your Mantra was a very calming read. The messages were helpful and forced one to think. I especially liked the reminder that "worry just makes one suffer twice". The book provides lots of little tidbits as to how to live the life you want to by using meditation and affirming thoughts

Not Truly New Mantras, but Mantra Actions are Good

In this book, you will find 75 mantras along with suggested actions for you to take to fully embody or embrace what the mantra is about. The book is divided into 5 core topics: peace, love, happiness, strength, and journey. I was surprised as I was flipping through the book at how common these mantras are. A few of them might be original to the author, but most are short, commonplace sayings--commonplace, at least, if you’ve done much reading in self-help or self-development. What does make this book interesting are the suggested mantra actions, though some are a bit general. After all, it is one thing to say a mantra and another thing to try fully practice, embrace, or get to know it more deeply. I think that's what this book's strength is. The writing is a little awkward, as if the writer is not a native English speaker or has been translated from another language. If you have an interest in positive thinking or translating positive thinking into action, this book could be for you.

Liked it, didn't love it, if only because I read a lot of inspirational books & like to discover something new in each one. The collection and organization of mantras is sure to please beginners in this genre. It is, though, a nice choice for when you're stuck in a moment and need a boost. These mantras fill the bill.

This is a great little book filled with positivity. Find Your Mantra by Aysel Gunar is a book you can read over and over again. There are 75 positive affirmations, as well as beautiful watercolors and photos. Ms. Gunar is the founder of MantraBands a jewelry company that makes bracelets with positive affirmations. The Mantras are divided in several categories: Love, Peace, Happiness, Journey and Strength. You can to start in a specific section where you feel you need positive thoughts or simply open the book and read what is before you. For each Mantra there is the mantra itself, the mantra action and finally the mantra benefit. Very uplifting and nice to have so many in one little book.

A peaceful simplistic book that covers short mantras combined with explanations. The stock photos do not add anything to the value of the book, but rather make it look cheap. Illustrations would have been better to be used as a replacement.
The book underwhelmed me in every way.

This was a nice, short book with lots of ideas for mantras. I really enjoyed that each mantra came with an idea for a mantra action to put it into practice. Most of the mantras were common sayings, and I enjoyed this more mindful look into them.
