This is my Camp NetGalley ARC choice. I’m so pleased with it. I love the cover, the calming color choices, and the font. The inside is organized, neat, and easy to follow. I found an entry for each day, but believe you can read more than one at a time and even skip around. We can all use calm in any way we can get it! I can’t wait to gift this to my sister-in-laws! Thank you, NetGalley.

In My Calm Era is a great self-help book! With only taking a few minutes each day you are able to learn ways to calm your anxiety and focus on your mental wellness. Each day has a short reading that gives you information about different habits to begin. Then it ends with an easy mantra to remember and an activity. The activities are easy to do and do not take a long time. I look forward to picking this book and practice calmness each day.

Thank you to NetGalley and Haper Celebrate for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I love how this is a daily self help book. Each day has a nice short description to focus on, followed with an action to do and an affirmation.

While I read this in one sitting, I am planning on going back and rereading it how it is intended. It will be a great way to help relieve some stress in my everyday life.

This was a really cute and helpful guide to some excercises you can do to ease the tension of everyday life. I liked a lot of the activities you can do and will definitely be implementing some of them in my routine.

The advice does get a bit repetitive after a while, I feel like it could have been shorter, that being said I do like the layout of this book, having a small thing to do everyday makes it more accesible and apporacheable.

Overall this is a quick read, great if you struggle with stress or need a roadmap of activities to do everyday to clear your mind.

This was my Camp NetGalley 2025 pick and a totally different genre for me! I am personally not a self help/non-fic girly but I do in fact want to enter my calm era lol. Sometimes something about a book just calls to you and after having a few chaotic weeks, this book felt perfect.

I read through this book all the way for the sake of reviewing but I will be going back to read these day by day to follow the 90 day flow. It's easy to read - and also easy to digest and follow. I unfortunately have a hard time utilizing the NetGalley reader and this was not available to send to kindle but this was much more enjoyable on a smartphone/iPad setup.

Really enjoyed this and I'm excited to follow the daily read now. It's perfect to take a few minutes to read while drinking your morning coffee and getting started for the day. I have already recommended this to a friend who IS a non-fic girly.

Thank you to Harper Celebrate and NetGalley for this e-arc. :)

The perfect length, with actionable works to do daily. An easy to follow format that is just long enough. Each chapter has one description, one action and one affirmation. Written without judgement. I am planning to follow the book throughout each day, but went ahead as it is 60 days so as to finish in time to give a review! Thanks to Haper Celebrate and NetGalley for the ARC which will be put to good use.

In My Calm Era is a gentle, encouraging guide designed to help readers invite more peace into their daily lives over the course of 90 days. With its simple structure—offering a short daily passage, a calming activity, and a thoughtful affirmation—this book provides a beautifully accessible way to reset and establish a more mindful, intentional routine.

I found the affirmations especially helpful: clear, uplifting, and easy to carry throughout the day. The suggested activities were not only calming but also enjoyable, making it feel less like a chore and more like a self-care ritual I looked forward to.

One feature I’d love to see in a future edition is a workbook format. Being able to journal directly within each day’s page would make the experience even more reflective and personal. Having a designated space to track thoughts, progress, or mood would really enhance the benefits of this already impactful book.

Whether you’re going through a stressful season or simply want to be more grounded and present, In My Calm Era is a lovely companion to guide you toward stillness, one day at a time.

In My Calm Era is an engaging self-help book designed to be read over 90 days, with a section for each day. I ended up reading it all in one in order to review as an ARC, and I’m glad I did. The book offers practical tips to help minimise stress and take steps toward becoming your best self. A helpful and encouraging read for anyone looking to bring more calm into their daily life.

I loved this! I really liked that it is broken up into small realistic and actionable steps over 90 days. Sometimes self help books can feel too overwhelming but this book felt like all the advice was actually doable. Highly recommend!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I love a good Self-Help book 👏🏼

This is written in the format to read a section per day for 90 Days, but like me — you can totally read it at once if you prefer.

I felt the book gave good and REALISTIC tips (unlike some Self-Help books) to minimizing stress and being your best self.

Keep an eye out for this one! Pub date is June 3rd.

Thank you to Harper Celebrate and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this ARC!

Thank you Netgallery for the chance to read this ARC. Opinions are 100% my own.

I really enjoyed all the tips to become stress-free. This was a perfect light hearted book that would help everyone including those with Type A personalities. There was some really good tips that I haven't seen before all put together in this cute book. I highly recommend everyone to read this book as the world we live in is stressful.

My favorite tip is to dance around and I would gladly dance with my daughter to keep the stress away. I will keep these tips in mind forever.
