Synopsis

From the bestselling author of Highly Sensitive People in an Insensitive World

Shame might be far from the first thing that comes to mind when you think about what's causing your problems. Shame is hidden, and rarely something we talk about, but it can underlie challenges that we deal with on a daily basis, including anxiety, depression and low self-esteem.

This book will help you understand what shame is, how it arises and, in turn, how to overcome it. With exercises in each chapter, it provides tools to reflect on, confront and free yourself from shame. The book also includes a questionnaire to assess how much shame impacts you.

Be kind to yourself and rediscover your empathy for yourself with Confronting Shame.

Goodreads review by Laine on April 30, 2025

Grāmata iesākās ļoti labi, daudz ko lika pārdomāt, bet uz beigām mazliet noplaka tā degsme, kas grāmata tika ielikta. Noteikti apdomāšu, kā audzinu bērnus, kā neielikt lieku kauna sajūtu no savas puses. Apdomāšu savas problēmlietas un centīšos izlabot, lai veidotu vēl veselīgākas ģimenes un darba at......more
