Summary:
"Psychologist LePera (
How
to Meet
Your
Self) urges readers to
love
themselves before they
love
others in this smart and conversational outing. After a string of failed romantic
relationships
, LePera realized that her inability to 'connect emotionally with myself' had led her to suppress her 'authentic needs,' lean on unhealthy coping mechanisms, and emotionally retreat from
relationships
. Readers facing similar roadblocks can develop a healthier self-regard by practicing 'body consciousness,' or tuning into and managing 'physical sensations... helping us modify our thoughts and feelings'; recognizing harmful 'ego stories' (the assumption that 'we're not worth their time' if someone we're interested in doesn't text us,' for example); and rewiring those ego stories with upbeat affirmations. While the '
love
yourself to
love
others' message isn't as revolutionary as LePera seems to think, she fleshes it out with an artful mix of personal anecdotes about her own relationship foibles, neurobiology, and exercises (including a 'deep belly breathing' practice intended to 'calm a fight-or-flight response by relaxing nervous system'), making for a flexible and compassionate program. Those eager to tackle their relationship struggles will be gratified."--Publishers Weekly.
Dr. Nicole LePera was trained in clinical psychology at Cornell University and The New School for Social Research and also studied at the Philadelphia School of Psychoanalysis. As a clinical psychologist in private practice, Dr. Nicole found herself frustrated by the limitations of traditional psychotherapy. Wanting more for her patients -- and for herself -- she began a journey to create a unified philosophy of mental, physical and spiritual health that equips people with the tools to
heal
themselves. Offering a true paradigm shift in mental wellbeing, Dr. Nicole's teachings empower the individual to
break
free from inherited beliefs and uncover their authentic Selves. She is the New York Times bestselling author of
How
to Do the Work and is the creator of the #SelfHealers movement, an international community of people joining together to take healing into their own hands.
