Do you read many self-help books to improve yourself or help you overcome an emotional block?

How helpful has it been?

In overwhelming times, my nervous system (body) takes over. So, to move forward, the best way is not to think harder or act on it first. The priority is to soothe the nervous system.

I am often wary about celebrating success and allowing myself FEEL successful, being afraid that something might go wrong if I become too happy or "full of myself".
