Halima Layeni Launches New Book, Dear Man, Championing Men’s Mental Health and Emotional Healing
Men’s Mental Health Advocate and Founder of the Life After Abuse Foundation, Halima Layeni, announces the launch of her new book titled Dear Man: If You Carry The Weight, This Is Your Invitation, a timely, heart-stirring publication that boldly addresses the often-unspoken emotional and psychological struggles of men.
At a time when the mental health crisis among men continues to grow globally, Dear Man emerges as a deeply necessary resource that offers insight, empathy, and a call to healing.
The book invites men into a brave space of reflection and unlearning where emotional honesty is not only allowed but affirmed.
Structured in three parts; The Weight of Expectations, The Inner Battles, and The Healing Journey, Dear Man is not just a book; it is a movement.
With compelling narratives, practical reflections, and hope-filled affirmations, it challenges harmful societal norms, confronts silence, and calls for a future where men are empowered to feel, heal, and thrive.
“This book was born from years of witnessing the silent suffering of men in communities, in therapy sessions, and on the streets.
Dear Man is my heartfelt letter to them.
A reminder that they are seen, heard, and worthy of emotional freedom,” said Halima Layeni, Author and Executive Director of Life After Abuse Foundation.
Dear Man is suitable for men of all ages, professionals working in mental health, educators, faith leaders, partners, parents, and anyone passionate about promoting emotional well-being among men and boys.
The book is now available for order on Selar: https://selar.com/dear-man
