Girl Wash Your Face is a self-help book for women that inspires readers to be hard on themselves–but not too hard. In the book, author Rachel Hollis says that we need to take care of ourselves to take care of others.
Self-help books are popular with people who want their lives to be different and better. This genre has seen many changes over time, from the days of old self-improvement books like How To Win Friends And Influence People to more recent titles like Girl Wash Your Face and The Happiness Project.
Self-help books have been around since the late 1800s when people would go out with their friends and read these Bibles together to make sense of the world and learn how they could improve themselves through hard work or perseverance.
The book reflects the author’s journey into self-love and the sharing of what she has learned through trial and error. The central idea in the book is that self-care is not selfish; it’s necessary for happiness, success, productivity, and longevity.
Here are the most inspiring quotes from girls who wash the face that will help you transform your thinking to achieve your goals and dreams.
