I bought Self Compassion: Stop Beating Yourself Up and Leave Insecurity Behind because it was recommended in my Ordinary Courage class. At first, I started reading it right away but then life got in the way and I didn’t get to really dig into it and finish it until the holidays last year.
And it was AMAZING.
I mean truly amazing.
If you tend to beat yourself up at all (and I sure do) I cannot recommend this book enough.
I would love to quote large sections from it but I am way too tired and sick to write them up. But trust me when I tell you that this is an truly worthwhile read.
In fact, I think I will have to reread sections of mine right now.
This summer I’m taking on my beating myself up in an effort to quit doing it. Thanks so much for the recommendation – I’m heading to your link next.
i hope you like it as much as I do! I read it a while back so I am thinking I might actually re-read it š
