Return to You is a self-help book by life coach, Shannon Kaiser. Kaiser shares her personal struggles with clinical depression and anxiety. Through this period of worry, fear, and self-doubt, she found solace through her spiritual journey. Return to You stresses the importance of making peace and love a priority. Kaiser presents 11 spiritual lessons and effectively encourages us to go within, understand our emotions, and detach from negative patterns.

I truly enjoyed this book from beginning to end. As someone who is also very spiritual, Kaiser nailed every single chapter in this book. After discovering these lessons on my own journey, Return to You acts as a tool that I can reference for gentle reminders every now and again. For those who are starting their spiritual journey, this book is a perfect guide for seeing things through a new perspective. I recommend for readers to really take their time with each lesson to properly absorb the information. When it comes to creating new habits, nothing is learned overnight. Thank you to NetGalley and Sounds True for this eARC in exchange for my honest review.

As a certified integrative life and wellness coach and big fan of Kaiser's Self Love Experiment, I was excited to see a new book coming in Spring 2022 and couldn't wait to dive in. Return To You does not disappoint. From the four 'core ideas' presented in the Introduction to tips on understanding, processing, and transcending your fear, Kaiser builds a message of self-empowerment and self-trust. Having chosen Season as my 'word of the year' before even opening this book, I was pleasantly surprised and wholly aligned with Chapter 2: Your Soul Has Seasons. Return To You is packed with interesting information, helpful questions and prompts, and actionable strategies for not only cultivating inner peace, but also an unshakeable sense of self and worthiness. There is a significant spiritual component to Kaiser's writing in Return To You, compassionate, inclusive, and open for interpreting along the practices of any faith. The inclusion of deeply personal stories is illustrative rather than indulgent, and the universality of the lessons offers nuggets anyone can personalize and use.

The main idea of Return To You can be summarized in what Kaiser presents as this 'life truth' - We can't solve our problems with outside solutions; lasting resolutions are always solved by the wisdom within. And, we are all wise to remember that the universe rewards motion. I highly recommend this book for those seeking personal growth, to deepen a spiritual relationship with oneself, or closer alignment with purpose.

I received a digital pre-publication copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
