Imagine a world where you don't need to change yourself to find happiness. In a culture obsessed with self-improvement, Rachel Brathen's "Yoga Girl" offers a refreshing alternative: you're already good enough as you are. This international bestseller has captured millions of hearts with its radical message that true happiness comes from accepting yourself completely-flaws and all. "The secret to finding success and balance in your life? There isn't one," Rachel reveals. Real change begins with radical self-acceptance-embracing your body, identity, and circumstances exactly as they are. Many of our insecurities stem from believing things should be different than they actually are. Society constantly tells us to improve ourselves, but rarely that we're good enough already. The path to contentment isn't about perfection but balance: dance all night and practice yoga the next morning; enjoy wine but don't forget green juice; savor chocolate when your heart desires it and kale when your body needs nourishment.
