About The Book
#1 New York Times bestselling author Iyanla Vanzant returns with an exciting new book introducing the transformational practice of spiritual hygiene!
Spiritual Hygiene is a spiritually based guidebook born of lived experience, personal loss, and divine assignment. With clarity and compassion, Iyanla Vanzant brings readers onto a transformational path of remembering, restoring, and realigning their inner temple. Inspired by the life and passing of Iyanla’s daughter, Nisa, and Iyanla’s own personal healing journey, this book teaches that just as we tend to our physical hygiene, our mental, emotional, and spiritual wellness also require conscious daily care and sacred maintenance. In a world overwhelmed by emotional clutter, mental chaos, physical depletion, and spiritual confusion, Spiritual Hygiene offers a life-affirming framework to cleanse the mind, heart, body, and soul, facilitating a return to sacred alignment.
Spiritual Hygiene guides readers to:
- Release toxic emotional patterns and outdated mental narratives.
- Develop sacred boundaries that lead to energetic clarity.
- Recognize the voice of trauma so it can be silenced.
- Reconnect with our Divine purpose with intentionality, personal healing ritual, silence, and inner alignment.
- Embrace sorrow, grief, and loss as teachers and portals to deeper wisdom.

Excerpt
Chapter 1: The Throne of Thought
Beloved Presence of All That Is,
Anchor me now in Your peace and perfect wisdom.
Today, I call forth the sacred flame of courage.
Not the absence of fear, but the holy willingness to move forward anyway.
Let courage rise in me like the morning sun,
warming every place within me that feels uncertain or afraid.
Divine Light of truth,
I ask that you clear my mind.
Wash away the fog of confusion, the heaviness of doubt,
and the noise of every voice that does not belong to me.
Make my thoughts clear, focused, and honorable.
Help me to see with spiritual eyes, so that I will choose with sacred discernment.
Guide me to speak only what is rooted in integrity and love.
I open my hands and my heart now, ready to receive Divine instruction
so that I will walk in alignment toward my greater good.
Guide me. Strengthen me. Clarify everything I hold in my mind.
May every step I take today be a step toward truth and peace and my own divinity.
I Ask. I Allow. I Accept.
Amen. A?? Aho.
And so, it is.
