A few people have asked me why I wrote this book.

The honest answer is, it came from a place that didn’t look anything like this.

It came from a mix of inspiration, frustration, and at times, desperation.

I could feel that the life I was living wasn’t fully aligned with who I am. And it wasn’t just a thought — I could feel that disconnection in my body.

Part of writing this book was trying to make sense of my own journey. To understand my healing path, and some of the things from my past that were still shaping how I was living in the present.

There were moments while writing where it didn’t feel like I was creating something new… it felt like I was reliving the experiences. Really sitting with them. Feeling them. And allowing the words to come from that place.

I wrote this book to understand myself more deeply, and with the intention that it might support someone else who’s on a similar path of finding their way back to themselves.

It wasn’t easy.

There were plenty of moments I wanted to quit. Internally, there was self-doubt, imposter syndrome, fear of rejection… all the usual voices. And externally, I was learning everything from scratch — writing, editing, publishing — while also trying to take care of myself and respect my own limits and boundaries along the way.

But something in me kept going.

And I think that’s really what this book is about, in many ways… staying with yourself, being there for yourself, even when it’s uncomfortable, and slowly finding your way back to what feels true.

The last few weeks with the launch of The Eleven New Commandments have been a bit of a rollercoaster.

I won’t lie, the whole experience brought up more anxiety than I expected.

There’s something about putting something this personal out into the world and then trying to let it go. However, there’s a real sense of relief in that too.

I’ve been really touched by the kind and supportive messages from people who’ve read it already.

Thanks to everyone who’s supported it in any way. It really means a lot. ❤️🙏

This book isn’t about becoming someone new.
It’s more about seeing
where, along the way,
you started to disappear a bit.

And what it takes
to come back to yourself again.

If something in these posts has been resonating…
that’s not random.

That’s recognition.

And once you start to see it…
it’s hard to unsee.

Before this was a book,
it was something I was trying to understand.

It’s been strange, in a good way,
to see how others have experienced it.

“Mícheál Ó Mathúna writes with deep compassion and clarity, offering a heartfelt invitation back to self-trust and inner goodness.”
— Sharon Salzberg, bestselling author of Lovingkindness

“The Eleven New Commandments is a must-read for anyone seeking a deeper connection with their inner wisdom.”
— Dr Kristin Neff, author of Self-Compassion

“A thoughtful and heartfelt work that supports readers in living with greater authenticity, presence and emotional well-being.”
— Dr Tal Ben-Shahar, author of Happier, No Matter What

This isn’t just a book.
It’s something people recognise
when they read it.

𝗜 𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗻’𝘁 𝘀𝗲𝘁 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘄𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝗸

I was trying to understand something that wouldn’t leave me alone.

Why a life can look right…
but not feel right.

Why you can do everything you’re meant to do…
and still feel like you’re disappearing a bit inside it.

Why it can look like you’re doing well…
but it doesn’t feel like your life.

Why nothing is obviously wrong…
but something doesn’t quite feel like it’s yours.

That question stayed.

It kept showing up.

In how I was living,
and how I was showing up.

And after a while,
ignoring it stopped working.

At some point,
I couldn’t not see it.

This book came out of that.

This is something I came to see slowly.

On the outside, things can look steady.
You’re getting on with it.
Doing what needs to be done.
In a lot of ways… it’s working.

That was my experience anyway.

But underneath that, something else can be happening.

You might notice you need more time to recover.
That things take more out of you than they used to.
That you’re more aware of how you’re coming across.

Small adjustments. All the time.

Nothing big enough to point to.
Nothing you can easily explain.

But over time, it adds up.

What used to feel natural
starts to take more effort.

What used to be easy
needs more attention.

And gradually… something begins to narrow.

Less room to be yourself.
Less energy at the end of the day.
Less of a sense of who you are
when you’re on your own.

I didn’t have language for it at the time.

Just a quiet sense
that something in me
wasn’t as present as it used to be.

And I couldn’t fully explain why.

This one shows you something else.

The patterns you’re trying to fix…
might not be the problem.

They might be what helped you survive.

Be agreeable.
Be easy.
Be good.
Don’t need too much.

Those rules worked.
Until they didn’t.

This book doesn’t give you more strategies.
It helps you see the ones
you’ve been living inside your whole life.

If this lands, you’ll understand this book.

It’s hard to put into words what this actually feels like.

There were a lot of drafts.
A lot of changes.

There were times I wasn’t sure I’d finish it.
And times I nearly walked away from it completely.

But something kept pulling me back.

It’s surreal seeing it finished after so many versions.

Delighted to finally have a finished copy of The Eleven New Commandments.

The April 17 online launch is going ahead ❤️

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗶𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗶𝗳…

You’ve built a life that works.
But something in you doesn’t.

You’re capable. Reliable. You make things work.
But underneath that…

• You feel exhausted in a way you can’t explain
• You notice yourself performing in conversations
• You struggle to know what you actually want
• You say “yes”… and feel it land wrong in your body

And sometimes, quietly…

You wonder:
how much of your life is actually yours.

It’s the story of what happens
when you’ve spent years becoming
who others needed you to be…
and suddenly realise
you no longer know who you are without that.

It’s about:
• saying yes when your body is saying no
• being successful on paper… but not in your life
• learning to disappear… and calling it “being good”

This isn’t about fixing yourself.

It’s about recognising
what you had to become to belong.

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝗸, 𝘄𝗵𝘆 𝗻𝗼𝘄

This book wasn’t written quickly.

It didn’t come from a single idea
or a moment of inspiration.

It came from years of noticing something
that a lot of people feel…
but don’t always have words for.

A pattern that shows up quietly in people’s lives.

In how they relate.
How they make decisions.
How they shape themselves to fit into roles, systems, and expectations.

From the outside, everything can look fine.
Functional.
Successful.
Even meaningful.

But underneath, there’s often something else.

A sense of disconnection.
A low-level exhaustion.
A feeling of being slightly out of alignment
without really knowing why.

Over time, one thing became very clear to me.

Most people aren’t struggling because something is wrong with them.

They’re struggling because they’ve been shaped by
a set of invisible rules
they were never asked to question.

Rules about who they should be.
How they should behave.
What makes them acceptable.
What makes them enough.

And those rules don’t just influence behaviour.

They shape identity.

They shape how we relate to ourselves,
how we relate to others,
and what we believe is possible in our lives.

For a long time, this was just something I noticed.

In conversations.
In interviews.
In my own life.

But eventually, it reached a point
where noticing wasn’t enough.

Because something is shifting.

More people are questioning things they once accepted.
More people are starting to feel the cost
of living in ways that don’t fully align.

And at the same time,
a lot of what’s out there doesn’t quite go deep enough.

There are tools.
Strategies.
Ways to cope or improve.

But often, the deeper question isn’t asked:

What if the structure itself needs to be questioned?

That’s really where this book came from.

*The Eleven New Commandments* isn’t about self-improvement in the usual sense.

It’s about looking at the underlying rules
that shape how we think, behave, and see ourselves
and creating space to move beyond them.

Not by rejecting everything
but by seeing more clearly what’s actually true.

Why now?

Because I think more people are ready for this conversation.

Ready to go beyond surface-level change.
Ready to look at the deeper patterns.
Ready to step out of identities built on adaptation
rather than truth.

This book is an invitation into that.

Not a set of instructions.
Not an ideology.

But something to help you see more clearly,
choose more consciously,
and live in a way that feels more real to you.

—

The Eleven New Commandments explores
the invisible rules many of us were raised with
and what it means to move beyond them.

Because real change doesn’t come from trying to be better.

It comes from being more true.
