Sei nicht so hart zu dir selbst

"I would like to love myself if only I were different." Hardly anyone is as strict and unfriendly with themselves as we are. Psychotherapist and bestselling author Andreas Knuf demonstrates how we can stop the constant self-judgment and better cope with painful experiences through self-compassion. Self-compassion refers to an attitude towards oneself characterized by kindness, mindfulness, and an understanding of the suffering inherent in human life. Andreas Knuf's book offers a very concrete, everyday, and practice-oriented approach to cultivating self-compassion. It explains why self-compassion is more important than the often-praised self-esteem. In addition to specific exercises, it also provides strategies and forms of self-reflection that can be integrated into daily routines.
