A Toolkit for Modern Life Reviews

In a world of white noise it is often hard to hear - or even find - the mental health support you need. Emma has a unique way of cutting through to the heart of the issues we all face day-in-day-out. There isn't another book out there like this and it should be a mandatory read for anyone with a brain. -- Anna Whitehouse, founder of Mother Pukka
Emma helped me understand my own thoughts in a way that resulted in me becoming much more compassionate towards myself. She makes hard scary things feel simpler, and for that I thank her enormously. Her incredible book is going to do the same for so many people. Read this book, feel better, then pass it on. -- Emma Gannon, bestselling author of The Multi-Hyphen Method
An essential owner's manual for anyone with a human brain, Emma cuts through the noise, clutter and bad science of social media to deliver a very simple message to us all: you don't have to struggle alone. -- Sara Tasker (@me_and_orla), bestselling author and podcast host

Emma has an amazing talent for making evidence-based psychology easy to understand and simple to put into practice. -- Dr Jessamy Hibberd, author of The Imposter Cure
As a very visual learner myself, I can really relate to Emma's simple, quirky illustrations that explain what is going on in inside our brains and why we can sometimes behave the way we do. Emma makes understanding our mental health normal and accessible, which empowers us to take control of our inner world and create a sense of wellbeing. -- Anna Lewis, aka Sketchy Muma, illustrator and author
Warm, fun, accessible and important. If you want to understand yourself on a serious level and enjoy yourself at the same time, this is the book for you. -- Dr Soph, Clinical Psychologist + Yoga Teacher

An utterly brilliant book. -- Elle Wright, writer and blogger at featheringtheemptynest.co.uk
