Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Get Your Power On!
Nancy Jonker · 2016
72/100
👍 Worth It
Jonker's clinical psychology credentials give this book more grounding than most women's empowerment titles, and the endorsement from Kristin Neff is a meaningful signal of quality rather than just a marketing pull quote. The neo-Reichian bodywork framework will be unfamiliar or off-putting to some readers, and the audience is narrow, but the POWER formula is concrete and the approach genuinely integrates mind and body in a way that sets it apart.
