Overcome Shame and Self-Recrimination with the Help of Ten Luminary Presenters Why is it that we're often our own worst enemy? What messages have we internalized that make us chronically criticize our own actions? And how can we break these cycles of self-recrimination? Research shows that when we truly accept ourselves, it changes everything. We become less reactive and more resilient. Our physical health improves. We are capable of deeper and more satisfying relationships. The Self-Acceptance Summit shows the way toward this most important path of healing and discovery. In The Self-Acceptance Summit: Volume Two, you'll find a collection of insights, encouraging voices, and on-the-spot tools to help you transform your relationship with yourself. This volume includes: -Gabrielle Bernstein: "The Universe Has Your Back: How to Transform Fear into Faith" -Caroline Myss: "Self-Esteem and the Power of Choice" -Adyashanti: "Healing the Core Wound of Unworthiness" -Tara Brach: "Waking Up from the Trance of Unworthiness" -Seane Corn: "Aging Wildly" -Chris Germer, PhD: "Overcoming Shame with Self-Compassion" -Danielle LaPorte: "The Lies We Fall for on the Way to Our Truth" -Glenn Schiraldi, PhD: "Quietly Glad: Self-Esteem and Self-Acceptance" -Kelly McGonigal, PhD: "The Neuroscience of Self-Compassion" -Mary O'Malley: "Your Most Important Love Affair" Whether you seek health and happiness in your own life or are hoping to be of greater service in the world, your relationship with yourself is always the starting point.
