We're too fat too thin, work too much, or not enough. Combine this with the fact that we are far more critical of ourselves than we would be of others, and you can see why low self-esteem is a common and dangerous threat to many of us. Maintaining a strong and healthy self-esteem will help an individual be happy, successful, and well-adjusted, but the consequences of negative self-esteem can be very severe indeed: depression, anxiety, fragile relationships, and a lifetime of unnecessary suffering. Author Glenn Schiraldi's Self-Esteem Workbook offers readers a comprehensive program for assessing and increasing self-esteem. But many of us simply haven't the time or the motivation to undertake a major reevaluation of the way we see ourselves. Fortunately, this latest installment in New Harbinger's Ten Simple Solution series offers readers quick, easy-to-grasp tips for fostering a positive sense of self. It distills the best techniques from the author's successful Self-Esteem Workbook. This book also incorporates techniques that make use of mindfulness practice. With a little patience and practice, readers will discover what wonderful, valuable people they really are. |
