    If you want to make a fresh start in the new year, we have some sage advice for you. From ridding yourself of bad self-esteem and building up your confidence to overhauling your food, fitness and career habits, here are the best self-help books in the business...

    1. Clean & Lean Diet Cookbook

      1. Clean & Lean Diet Cookbook, £9.09

      "Your health and happiness are important, so stand strong," says author and fitness guru James Duigan, who boasts a celebrity following including Elle Macpherson and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley.

    2. The Skinny Gut Diet

      2. The Skinny Gut Diet, £16.26

      "I don't want it to be a secret anymore. You see, digestive health is the foundation for total-body health. If you don't address weight gain at its core – at the gut level – then you can't lose weight and expect to keep it off," reveals author Brenda Watson.

    3. Wellbeing And Mindfulness

      3. Wellbeing And Mindfulness, £15.90

      "Natural therapies to balance mind, body and spirit," claims author Jane Alexander, whose brand new book demystifies holistic techniques that help you to enjoy a healthier, happier life in the twenty-first century.

    4. Yoga And Body Image

      4. Yoga And Body Image, £13.99

      "Some days will definitely be easier than others," says yogi Linda Sparrowe who joins 24 other women in sharing personal stories about beauty, bravery and loving your body as part of this book. "I try to approach my practice from a place of compassionate self-inquiry bringing my mind into my body and letting go of the outside stimulation."

    5. Parenting OCD

      5. Parenting OCD, £12.99

      "Down to earth advice from one parent to another," explains the author Claire Sanders - and who doesn't need a bit of advice every now and again!

    6. Become The Best You

      6. Become The Best You, £5.99

      This book will help you "make peace with the past and break the cycle of dysfunction," claims writer of Become The Best You, Reneé Davis.

    7. The Paleo Diet Made Easy Cookbook

      7. The Paleo Diet Made Easy Cookbook, £8.96

      "A Paleo diet is naturally lower in carbohydrate than the modern diet and automatically eliminates many foods that are low in nutrients and high in calories. It makes sense to feed your body nutrients in their cleanest possible form," explains the curator of the 360 recipes you get inside this cookbook.

    8. River Cottage Light & Easy

      8. River Cottage Light & Easy, £9.99

      "Eating more healthily isn't about denial. For example, reducing one's dependence on wheat flour and dairy ingredients, which don't appear at all in this book, turns out to be a delicious voyage of discovery. New grains, new oils, new tastes, new combinations: it all adds up to a new zest for life," says author and chef Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall.

    9. Mental Toughness for Peak Performance, Leadership

      9. Mental Toughness for Peak Performance, Leadership Development, and Success, £5.04

      "I have written this guide with a single objective in mind - to help you become a consistent peak performer, exceptional leader, and high achiever by increasing your mental toughness to the highest level of your innate potential," reveals writer J. Barnes.
