Review: The Art of Reading Minds
Henrik Fexeus' The Art of Reading Minds demystifies the concept of mind reading, presenting it not as a magic trick but as a practical skill that can be learned with practice. The author emphasizes the importance of rapport—the ability to build a connection with someone—and explains how unconscious cues like body language, tone of voice, and micro-expressions reveal what a person is thinking or feeling.

Fexeus highlights that mind reading involves observing and interpreting subtle signals people unconsciously give, rather than relying on supernatural abilities. The book provides methods for perceiving emotions and behaviors and decoding their meanings, reinforcing the idea that our thoughts often manifest physically, even if we are unaware of it.

Personal Experience:
While the book offers intriguing insights, I found the techniques challenging to implement as I progressed. Observing fine details, such as changes in pupil size or subtle eye movements, felt overwhelming and impractical for everyday use.

Who Should Read This Book?

Those interested in psychology and understanding human behavior
Individuals exploring psychoanalysis or the art of interpreting emotions
Readers curious about non-verbal communication and body language

If you’re curious about how others think or feel about you, this book can provide valuable insights. However, be prepared for some techniques that may require significant effort and practice to master.

I Started Journaling and It Quietly Changed Everything

Why You Should Start Journaling Writing about your weekly progress can help a lot. A teacher once told my class: “Write your progress somewhere and ask yourself if you’ve actually grown.” I didn’t take it seriously at first, but I still started writing — and now it’s been two years . And honestly, the best part wasn’t the writing… It was reading my past self . What Makes Journaling Special? There are things in life we can’t share publicly — even with people we trust the most. But a journal is different: Nobody is judging you You can be completely honest You can write things you’ll never say out loud You can expose your weaknesses without fear It’s yours — private. How I Started I didn’t start journaling to “track progress” or “be productive.” I just wrote what was happening: How my tests went How people treated me Why they behaved a certain way What I was feeling It became a space where I could say anything — without being misunderstood. No one was judg...

Let the Man Cry

It’s okay to let it out. You’re safe here — with yourself, your thoughts, and your truth. As a man myself, I understand that society has presented men as someone who must be strong — both physically and mentally. We are seen as people who, when we cry, somehow become weak. And yes, sometimes others might treat us differently when we do. The society made me believe that crying makes you weak. I used to think that too… but now I realize it’s this very mentality that makes you weak. But I guess crying doesn’t make you weak. It actually helps regulate your emotions — the feelings you’ve buried deep in your heavy heart. Some of us might have never cried in our lives, or maybe we’ve even forgotten how. But I guess… it’s time to let your tears fall in your safe space. And by safe space , I don’t mean another person. I mean yourself . Because you are the only one who has seen your ups and downs. You are the one who understands yourself the most. You are the one who will n...

Book Review: Verity by Colleen Hoover

Verity Colleen Hoover 5 of 5 stars Genre: Thriller/Romance/Mystery The story of the book is as follows...... Jeremy Crawford husband of Verity Crawford (best-selling author) invites Lowen Ashleigh (an average struggling author) to complete her wife’s remaining work in a series that she couldn’t complete because she was injured. When Lowen reaches Crawford's house she starts to get through years of Verity's work to first understand which tone and style she uses in her books. After finding her autobiography, in which she has written everything about herself and how her life changed, which Verity wrote for herself, she began reading it too. As she continues reading it, the intensity of her terrors and curiosity grows as she goes through the chapters one by one. This was my first Miss Collen book. It gave me chills while reading it and I completed it within two days. This was pretty fast for me. Recommended for everyone interested in Romance, Mystery and Thrill...
