How to Be Selfish
7 steps to taking back your power
Novinka
IT'S TIME TO START LIVING LIKE YOU MATTER TOO
In How to Be Selfish, chartered psychologist Suzy Reading challenges everything we’ve learnt about selflessness, and dispels the widely accepted myths about what it is to be 'selfish'.
Drawing on somatic therapy, neuroscience and psychology, alongside highly effective coaching tools and techniques, Suzy presents seven steps to guide you towards reclaiming your peace and your power. We can only become calmer, stronger, well-rested people by prioritising ourselves and also allowing others to fill up our cup. It is time to receive!
By reclaiming the right to self and honing the skills of self-advocacy, we deepen the authenticity of our bonds, we protect the energy to take care of others and also tend to our own needs and ambitions without depletion.
Understanding the true glory of being able to embrace 'selfishness' is our opportunity to break the cycle of stress and toxic productivity, disrupt patriarchal pressure and transform the way we live, love, work and parent.
