You Are A Great And Powerful Wizard is currently the #1 bestselling self-care book and #7 bestselling nonfiction title at Powell's Books!

I'm overjoyed to announce that You Are A Great And Powerful Wizard: Self-Care Magic for Modern Mortals has become Powell's Books #7 bestseller in nonfiction, and of those is the #1 bestselling mental health title!

You Are A Great And Powerful Wizard: Self-Care Magic For Modern Mortals (illustrated by Eugene artist Barbara Counsil) weaves together science, activism, psychology, and important reminders for personal empowerment. Using the fun lens of magic and wizardry, I explore topics like coping with the darkness (depression and anxiety), magic potions (food and nutrition), forming magical allies (friends and relationships), destructive spells wizards are commonly under (toxic habits), magic alchemy (effective activism), and much more.

The Coronavirus has skyrocketed feelings of depression, helplessness, and loneliness. According to the Census Bureau and Hartford HealthCare, over a quarter of Americans are experiencing pronounced depression from current events, and rates of suicide have increased dramatically. My book introduces tools to the reader to find the motivation to shift perspectives, build community, and find contentment in these trying times.

You Are A Great And Powerful Wizard guides the reader on a motivational quest to discover their highest form of being and challenge unhealthy aspects of society. While most self-help books are all about individual transformation, You Are A Great And Powerful Wizard acknowledges that the culture we exist in often fuels loneliness, despair, and sickness. I assert that by working to become more powerful wizards and overthrowing the “wizards in control” we can become mentally and physically healthier and happier.
