Talking to Yourself: Learning the Language of Self-Affirmation

Rating:
Summary: It's a wonderful book, very practical.
Review: A cognitive therapy approach, it takes the view of identifying the distortions in ones thinking, then stating a more realistic and workable alternative. It is wonderful for those of us that can't just switch in one step from "I'm bad and really messed up" to "I'm wonderful". It helps develop more realistic and useful self talk. I bought several and gave them away, now I don't have one for myself, just when I want to brush up.

Summary: Very well written and full of insight...
Review: This book changed my life. I enjoyed it so much that I sent it to my sister in Denver to read. I thought it would help her too. Now, she can't find it and I need to read it again. I don't want to try any other book because this one did the trick in helping me change my way of thinking. In my case, however, it is something I have forgotten how to do and need to read it again. I was saddened when I found that getting this book again may be quite a struggle. I'm hoping that enough people respond to this so maybe it will be published again. The world is missing out.

Summary: Talking to Yourself
Review: This book had many usefull insights but the discussion of the 'rescue process' had a profound impact on my life. Like the others that have reviewed this book I have given mine away because I know that it has the power to change lives for the better. I would really like another copy or six.
