Reviews
"Health isn't just about nourishing your physical body; it's about nourishing your mindset. Robyn teaches so beautifully about the power of creating small changes that make the most impact in life and how we show up in the world. She teaches the 'why' behind these mindset shifts, giving you more confidence to take action with the tools she shares. This book is for you if you want to create the habit of feeling good!"--McKel Kooiengia, MS, RDN, LDN, founder of Nutrition Stripped "Wildly practical and refreshingly unpretentious, The Feel Good Effect is a delightful toolkit to upgrade your life."--Ashley Neese, breathwork teacher and author of How To Breathe "The Feel Good Effect is a refreshing guide to change, especially for anyone who struggles with perfectionism or self-criticism. Robyn Downs provides the perfect balance of science, practical strategies, and personal encouragement."--Kelly McGonigal, Ph.D., author of The Willpower Instinct "Anyone can cheer you on, but few can help you change like Robyn Downs. So many of us know the type of life we want--happy, fulfilled--but the hard part isn't always the what, it's the how. With warmth, vulnerability, and stunning clarity, Downs upends our notions of what it means to be and do well, and offers actionable advice for anyone who is ready to change their mindset, and with it, their lives."--Alicia Menendez, author of The Likeability Trap "This book will set you free. The Feel Good Effect is a breath of much needed fresh air in the self-development space. Robyn graciously and effectively guides you away from a cookie-cutter mindset regarding feeling good, and toward embodying methodologies and paths unique to who you are. Robyn has created a beautiful roadmap to help us thrive forward."--Lalah Delia, spiritual writer, wellness educator, and author of Vibrate Higher Daily "This book is straight-up refreshing, inspiring, and so tangible in its advice for living a better life. It's made up of equal parts science-backed research and Robyn's personal stories that will have you simultaneously laughing, crying, nodding, and feeling like someone is finally reading your mind. The Feel Good Effect is a must-read for any high-achiever who is craving more peace and joy, as well as a more sustainably healthy way to live. It takes wellness to a whole new (and needed) level."--Sarah Adler, founder of Simply Real Health
