10 Simple Solutions for Building Self-Esteem: How to End Self-Doubt, Gain Confidence, & Create a Positive Self-Image (The New Harbinger Ten Simple Solutions Series) by Glenn R. Schiraldi PhD

10 Simple Solutions

by Glenn R. Schiraldi

It's no secret that we're all bombarded with negative messages. We're too fat, too thin, work too much, not enough. Combine this with the fact that we are far more critical of ourselves than we would be of others, and you can see why low self-esteem is a common and dangerous threat to many of us. Maintaining a strong and healthy self-esteem will help an individual be happy, successful, and well-adjusted, but the consequences of negative self-esteem can be very severe, depression, anxiety, fragile relationships, and a lifetime of unnecessary suffering. Author Glenn Schiraldi's Self-Esteem Workbook offers a comprehensive program for assessing and increasing self-esteem. But many of us simply haven't the time or the motivation to undertake a major reevaluation of the way we see ourselves. Fortunately, this latest installment in New Harbinger's Ten Simple Solutions series offers you quick, easy-to-grasp tips for fostering a positive sense of self. It distills the best techniques from the author's successful first book, and it also incorporates techniques that make use of mindfulness practice. With a little patience and practice, you'll discover what a wonderful, valuable person you really are.

The most useful part for me is the model used to explain what is self-esteem. The other reason is that this book includes many excises which you could practice by yourself. Since I am not a christian, the last two chapters about God leads to less influence to me.

This book gave me some good strategies to try with my son. I appreciated the format as it was easy to skim to find relevant sections and exercises and ones that I just didn't see working for me.

2.5 stars

Really seemed like more of a "let's put a book together about yoga/meditation/mindpower" more than it was of how to actually improve your own state of mind about yourself (a different perspective, I guess?)

[Aaron]

Started off well, but lost steam as the book progresses. I still found a lot of helpful chapters in here, and would recommend this book to people who want to build their self-esteem!

[Azi Rohani]

Among the books I read to help my client with, this one is by far the best!

[A]

Very easy to read, practical advice, and a heartwarming reading experience all-around.
Good, warm comfort, perfect for a world that doesn't always feel that way; what a good reminder for what we've always known: that love goes a long way!

[Lat]
