Of all of the books FWH and I have read since dday, this one, by far, has been the most helpful and the most healing.

There are exercises throughout the book that encourage self-reflection/introspection and that teach the reader ways in which they can be less self-critical and more self-compassionate.

This book is life changing for both BS and WS, IMO!!

For anyone who has read the book and done the exercises, what did you think? Did you find it helpful? Do you feel you have you become more self-compassionate?

Thoughts?

I haven't read the book yet (on hold at the library), but my IC recommended a TED talk by her. It made a lot of sense and I look forward to learning more.
