Journal of Radical Permission by Sonya Renee Taylor

Discover the unforgettable and transformational experience of journaling your way into your most authentic self.

This journal will help you claim permission to live your purpose. Based on the bestselling philosophies of radical self-love, emergent strategy, and pleasure activism, this journal gives you permission to love yourself deeply as you are.

Journaling to these prompts will help you surrender to your body's needs instead of forcing yourself into cramped disciplines. It will encourage you to become awed by the natural beauty of your divine self instead of being rampantly self-critical. It will aid you in embracing your shadows and accepting responsibility for your impact all while liberating you to just be.

This structured journal, from the cohost of the Emergent Strategy podcast and the New York Times-bestselling author of The Body is Not an Apology, provides six key practices, with prompts for each practice that center on curiosity, surrender, grace, and satisfaction.
