MADE OUT OF STARS

Meera Lee Patel

A Journal for Self-Realization

From the bestselling author of Start Where You Are and My Friend Fear comes a beautifully illustrated journal that celebrates what makes each of us uniquely amazing.
Meera Lee Patel's first guided journal, Start Where You Are, has inspired hundreds of thousands of readers through a rare combination of stunning watercolor art and thoughtful, empowering prompts and quotations. Her next journal, MADE OUT OF STARS will pick up the journey, encouraging readers to recognize and embrace what makes them truly special.

The biggest obstacle standing in the way of our progress, happiness, and fulfillment is ourselves. We are surrounded daily by noisepeople and places telling us that in order to achieve true happiness and success, we must constantly change. We are taught to continually move toward bigger and better things and to desire what the world tells us we should desire. It isn't long before the noise of everything that surrounds us begins to climb inside us, and slowly, we begin to forget who we are.

MADE OUT OF STARS, a journal for self-realization, encourages readers to develop acceptance for who and where they are. It acknowledges that life itself is a creative process, and that the true mark of contentment and success is balance within ourselves and the world that surrounds us. With plenty of space for personal reflection, note-taking, and keeping track of personal progress, MADE OUT OF STARS asks readers to answer the difficult questions that open doors to self-discovery, acceptance, and connectedness. Vibrant paintings and universal quotes from revered philosophers and artists encourage readers to identify and celebrate their individual paths. MADE OUT OF STARS ultimately reminds us that our differences are not obstacles to overcome, but strengths that offer sustenance and wonder as we learn to accept them.

A booster shot of self-care when you need it most, this beautiful, intimate book will be a touchstone for anyone looking to better understand themselves so they can clear out the "noise" and be who they are. Self-care and self-empowerment are hot topics, especially in our uncertain times, and this journal gives readers permission to celebrate their uniqueness, and focus on what matters most.

With 435,000 in print after 22 print runs and a rate of returns of 2%, Start Where You Are has captivated readers online and in stores. This new journal follows the same format: four-color watercolor paintings with journal prompts and plenty of room to write. It's sure to be another book that fans will devour, give as a gift, and share photos of online.
