Self-Esteem Companion by Matthew McKay (Editor), Patrick Fanning, Carole
Honeychurch, Catharine Sutker
From the authors of "The
Relaxation and Stress Reduction Workbook" comes a series of 50 simple
exercises designed to help readers challenge their inner critic and
celebrate their self worth. Self-worth and self-esteem are essential for optimal
health. Without them, life can be painful, dominated by a critical inner
voice that undermines the basic psychological structures necessary for
healthy living. In The Self-Esteem Companion, the authors of several
successful workbooks on stress reduction and self-esteem offer 50
realistic exercises to help readers break the cycle of self-abuse. They
provide strategies for standing up to the "inner critic," making an
inventory of personal strengths and weaknesses, and practicing
self-compassion. Readers learn how to deal with mistakes, handle
criticism, and feel more self-confident in their personal relationships.
The Self-Esteem Workbook by Glenn Schiraldi, Ph.D. Patrick Fanning, Matthew
McKay
Presents a course in self-esteem based on
new research and sound principles. Includes checklists, fill-ins, and
exercises to show readers how thoughts, emotions, physical health, and
behavior impact their self-esteem. Softcover. A host of dysfunctional and
self-destructive patterns arise at minor and acute levels if an
individual dislikes him- or herself. Despite the importance of
self-esteem, surprisingly little attention has been focused on building
it directly, until now. Designed in an easy-to-use format, The
Self-Esteem Workbook presents a course in self-esteem based on new
research and sound principles. Checklists, fill-ins, and exercises show
readers how thoughts, emotions, physical health, and behavior impact
their self-esteem. Periodic checkups help them gauge their progress, and
final sections offer strategies for preventing relapse.
