Become a Good Mother to Yourself. How to Nurture Your Inner Child and Provide Support

What voice sounds in your head when you make mistakes or experience failures? A critical or supportive one? If it's the former, then it's likely that this is how your parents spoke to you. They admonished and shamed you when they should have comforted and encouraged you.

Practicing psychotherapist Nadia Kroshka suggests that you stop regretting that your mom or dad were not a reliable support for you as a child, and stop expecting them to be that now. Instead, nurture a caring parent within yourself. Learn to treat yourself as a good mother should treat her child. This means stopping the self-criticism and ignoring your own needs.

After reading this book, you will be able to:

* Easily praise yourself for your successes.
* Understand your true desires.
* Accept yourself in any state.
* Care for your well-being first and not be afraid to ask others for help.
