Expanding Love: A Practical Guide to Holding a Loving Heart by Neha Shivdeep is a motivational book that encapsulates the different aspects of love. The word 'love' has so many meanings and the author explores and expands this beautiful concept through the book. Each one has their own definition of love and one can love anything they like. This book tells you to love yourself, the people around you, nature and the world on the whole. Speaking about love and loving is very easy, but it is difficult to practice.

I enjoyed reading about the various facets and angles of love. The author has managed to cover this topic expansively and extensively. The book is helpful in expanding one's love because many a time people tend to limit their love and become narrow-minded. The book also has a good poem, 'Let love enter,' which tells readers to promote love, and it is also a sort of affirmation to let love rise within and spill into one's life.

“I love and respect myself.
I care about what happens to me.
I wish to get to know myself and
Let myself be my own responsibility.”

This affirmation is indeed helpful and useful in enhancing the concept of self love and it can be practiced without any difficulty. Here, the advantage of the diary to capture small things candidly is mentioned, where later on these candid expressions can be informative to bring about changes. All the affirmations and points in the book are easy to apply in one's life. And that is what makes this book a winner.
