Hello to you, I am with news. I have a new book: I Haven't Been Entirely Honest With You. I know - what an intriguing title!
Basically, I have had an unexpectedly difficult decade - there have been surprising joys, but also deep revelations and challenging lows. I shall be honest about those, because what I discovered in the difficult times were my, what I call, treasures.
Treasures - practical tools, values, ways, answers researched from some great scientists, neuroscientists, therapists, sociologists (all the 'ists') out there, that have genuinely led to a sense of freedom, joy, peace and physical recovery I never would have thought possible.
Life now, amazingly, with what I will share, is - SUCH FUN! (always important to quote your own catch phrases. . .) If you fancy having a read, then I hope my story might help your story. After all, we are in this beautiful, mysterious, challenging life together. Rest assured there are funny stories along the way - we will have a laugh too, my dear reader chum.
Oh, and I couldn't possibly say if there is a love story in it . . . (There is - shush). Exciting.

Rezensionen / Stimmen
A raw and poignant account. Miranda is more of an everywoman than ever before * The Times * A bombshell, moving, inspirational. Hart passes on the tips that helped her emerge from psychological as much as physical doldrums. No comedian, female or male, has been so taken to the nation's bosom since Victoria Wood * Independent * A wonderful book, filled with treasure * Julia Samuel, psychotherapist and bestselling author * The wisest, kindest, bravest, most forgiving and generous book. A manual for gentleness * Isabella Tree * Wonderfully optimistic * Financial Times * Irrepressible and joyous. Taking us affectionately by the hand, Miranda takes us through her ten-year journey to deep self-knowledge. Along the way she picks up treasures, smashes old patterns of behaviour, and works out a code for how to live and what life's priorities should be. She describes memorable escapades from her past and can't repress her inner funniest girl in the dorm self * Daily Mail * Packed with optimism and wisdom * i * Miranda's account of slowly letting her guard down and being vulnerable is sweet and moving, and proof that happiness is possible even in the most trying times * Guardian * A memoir and a guide for those in a similar scenario, or indeed anyone feeling crushed and exhausted by modern life * inews.co.uk * This book is a real gem for therapists to recommend to clients. A rich introduction to some of the best self-help strategies from a trusted and much-loved icon. All the more powerful to read how Miranda discovered them via her own health crises; a painful read were it not softened by her comedic take on life's trials. * Dr Christine Dunkley, Consultant DBT Trainer *
