Product Description A practical approach to self-love with evidence-based therapy skills to trust your inner voice, make confident decisions, and live with greater personal empowerment in your relationships, career, and everyday life. Many studies show that self-love is central to good mental health. Self-Love in Action helps you cultivate compassion, accountability, and self-respect in all areas of your life. In this practical, everyday guide, self-love becomes a verb—a moving declaration towards personal empowerment. This psychology-driven book offers proactive strategies to redirect you back to your authentic self by learning to listen to the voice within. Guided by a therapist, you'll confront the past, examine the present, and prepare for the future by setting boundaries, taking accountability, and practicing the ultimate act of self-love. Boost confidence with small rituals that shift the focus from “them” to “me”—reminding you that true love flows from the inside out. Implement “Time to Practice” exercises to pause, set boundaries, say no, and invest in yourself. Take self-love quizzes to reflect on the ways current habits might impede self-love action. Explore real examples of clients who have overcome common hardships through their commitment to self-love. Review “In this compassionate and deeply insightful book, Zoë Crook teaches what she has had to learn in an alienating culture that instills self-judgment and even self-loathing. Her concept of self-love, and the simple, practical but transformative guidance she offers does not lead to narcissistic self-regard, but to an expansive acceptance of who we are and to a better extension of heartfelt loving kindness to ourselves and to our world.” —Gabor Maté, MD, author of The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness and Healing in a Toxic Culture “Zoë Crook has generously given us a practical guide to help us achieve a self-love that is supportive and nourishing. This book features wise and centered practices to linger on and enjoy.” —Carl Erik Fisher, author of The Urge: Our History of Addiction About the Author Zoë Crook, MA, is a writer and therapist who guides individuals and couples towards healthy relationships.
