Why read it?
1 author picked Calm as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I loved this book because it was so authentic and inspiring. I really like it when an author shares her own experiences and those of her wise friends, as it makes a book so much more relatable. I found myself focusing on the little things that I could do on a daily basis just to calm down and be present.

From Jackie's list on help you reduce stress.
