Insecurities, inadequacies, self-doubt; we all have them, and never more so than in this age of media saturation and technical voyeurism. Enter Bunny Michael, an interdisciplinary artist and podcast host whose work picks up where Alex Elle, Bren Brown, and Julia Cameron leave off.

Bunny knows what it is firsthand to be an outsider: from trying to find their footing in an art world dictated by social media followers, to coming to terms with their queer identity, to dealing with the societal traumas theyve inherited as a person of color in a society that privileges whiteness. It was at a real low point that Bunny first got in touch with their higher selfand ever since has been helping their followers do the same through their art and inspiring Instagram presence.

Building from Bunnys viral memes, Hello, Higher Self Is a self-care manifesto, calling on readers to radically shift their perspectives from the Learned Hierarchal Beliefs (LHBs) weve all internalized to the self-acceptance we were born into, aka our Higher Selves. This book shines a light into eighteen areas of life where LHBs often lurkfrom creativity, to work, to relationships, to race, to sexual pleasure. Bunnys mix of meditative advice, written exercises, and personal examples make for a jaw-dropping read.
