The Workbook for Positive Feelings – Be Kind to Yourself

Being kind to ourselves sounds simple, but it often isn’t: our inner critic usually speaks up more quickly – or more loudly – than the supportive voice. This workbook by Anne van Stappen invites you to make friends with the most important person in your life: yourself.

Across 64 pages, it shows a liberating way out of the trap of self-criticism that we all fall into time and again. With the help of Non-Violent Communication, you’ll learn to listen more closely to your inner voice and treat yourself more kindly, because that is precisely what brings stability, strength and the power to lead a happy, fulfilling life.

Anne van Stappen is a doctor and trainer in Non-Violent Communication. She has been giving talks and running workshops on communication and conflict management since 1995.

The illustrations are by Jean Augagneur, and the German translation is by Claudia Seele-Nyima.

She has also published ‘Making Peace with Your Own Body’ in the same series.
