"Mental health is critically important for everyone, everywhere, and goes beyond the mere absence of a mental health condition. It is integral to well-being, enabling people to realize their full potential, show resilience amidst adversity, be productive across the various settings of daily life, form meaningful relationships and contribute to their communities. Physical, psychological, social, cultural, spiritual and other interrelated factors contribute to mental health, and there are inseparable links between mental and physical health."

"Niki writes in a lovely conversational style that makes it sound like a conversation with a friend. The book offers insight into the worldview of the author and how it shapes even the smallest decisions and experiences in her life. It challenges the reader to view life from a different perspective and encourages reflection on what is important. It is hopeful and encouraging in its tone. Power and Praise is worth a read." - Zainab Oseni, General Practitioner (GP) with a special interest in global health
"In this book, Niki gives so many anecdotes of situations/problems she has encountered in her life, followed by extremely helpful suggestions of how she overcame them...Niki is such a prolific writer that once you start reading this or any of her other books they are hard to put down until you reach the end. I highly recommend this book." - Margaret Greenway, Retired administrator
