Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Are you ready to experience true, unconditional love? Do you wish you could create stronger relationships, heal yourself and experience genuine affection?

Modern relationships are more complex than ever, and our approach to love often comes from a place of lack, rather than an outpouring of a cup that is already filled. Our inherent need to give and receive love is as true today as it was at the dawn of time, but the purest love is built on self-love.

Vex King, author of bestselling Good Vibes, Good Life and Healing is the New High, is back with Closer to Love, a practical guide to creating lasting connections. Vex has developed these practices and skills to help him heal, to build stronger connections and to find peace and joy in his own romantic relationship. He is now sharing his wisdom and experience to guide readers on their own journeys.

In three clear steps, Vex will help you to:

  • Understand the role you play within your connections
  • Build meaningful and mindful relationships
  • Learn how to love authentically and unconditionally

Closer to Love will empower you to cultivate mature, meaningful relationships, overcome fears, expectations and insecurities, develop clarity around who you really are and understand what kind of relationships you want to build.

Isn't it time you got closer - to yourself, to others, and to love?

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

The book is widely praised for its inspiring and transformative message.
