Her new book Monday Mantras with Megan walks you through the process week by week.

It starts with new beginnings and ends with I am enough. Weigel is guiding us through a year worth of mantras and self-help.

Everyone is scrambling looking for things externally to try to make themselves healthy and feel better and all of it really comes has to come from inside," Weigel said. "So you can spend thousands of dollars on supplements, lab tests and all of these things but what you really need is to work with people who teach you how to heal whats inside of you.

She knows modern medicine as a nurse practitioner. She writes about integrative medicine, which she uses as a supplemental form for medicine.

It include mantras, yoga, even acupuncture.

The book is a combination of a weekly intention which is what I call the mantra, which is a phrase that might help you in your every day and an action," Weigel explained. "That action is a yoga pose or a type of breath or maybe the use of an essential oil.
