I enjoyed reading the book “The Self-Compassion Guide: From Beating Yourself Up to I AM Awesome In 30 Minutes.” The book provides strategies to make one feel awesome in 30 minutes. It actually works! I liked the way the author explains the importance of self-compassion in context of tendencies for depression. The book informs about signs of lack of self-confidence including scolding, irritation, and self-mutilation.It helped me let go of self-criticism. I agree when the author says that people need to understand the nature of perfectionist because they never admit their mistakes. The book helped me to understand the importance of being kind to others. The most impressive part of the book are the steps for being more self-compassionate.  The book helped me to inculcate and heal my destructive tendencies.Rereadable book!
