Bring your own book set up a publishing station at W139, Amsterdam. With the intention to publish everyone. Visitors were invited to fill out/in/up a template, which was then printed and distributed on the spot.

This publication contains all printed works that were taken down from the walls of W139 after the exhibition in September 2023.

Archiving self-sourcing, DIY healing methods and curing recipes, this publication brings together contributions from over 15 people in the form of recipes, instructions, poems, artwork and writings. They contemplate on the topics of self healing practices (old and new) in a world that still embodies medical misogyny, and doesn’t always manage to care for each body and mind in needed ways.

With contributions by Ada Koistinen, Morgane Billuart, Christian Crochet, Eva Bakkeslett, Gwyneth Eldridge, Women On Waves, Maxime Labritt, Iiris Riihimäki, Nell Schwan, Staci Bu Shea, Cláudia Pallisé, Maya Lane, Cranberryjuice, Margot Van Der Sande & Jade Poolen.
