Is Self Care/Compassion dead? Does it even exist? I thought that! I was a no nonsense, crack walnuts on your biceps kind of girl. Hey, I'm a female, I can multitask! That's all fine until one day your world crashes down like mine did.

Kristin Neff, Ph.D., says that it's time to "stop beating yourself up and leave insecurity behind." I totally agree with her on this. When did you last take time for yourself?

If you are with me on that, then you cannot afford to miss this Step by Step Guide to Self Compassion. Take back your life one step at a time. Empower yourself to find balance and purpose in your relationships, work, and life. Be your own best friend once again.

From a huge personal trauma, years of personal experience, as well as taking the message of the importance of mental health to great men and women, I've come to understand that when you care deeply for yourself, you naturally begin to care for others.

How is this guide different to every other Self help book out there?

Ok let's break this down. First of all: Size. This is an expresso shot to wake up to just how important self compassion is. No waiting until the middle-to-end of the book for the real nuggets of wisdom.

Second this book tells Self Care/Compassion through the eyes of the 2 wolves' tale. This is subtle shift in the Self-Help Genre and speaks to your subconscious, long term memory.

It uses a simple, easy and accessible formula: story. Fables and stories can easily be remembered. Shopping lists cannot! We are all looking for something meaningful to hold onto in all of the noise. This guide is designed to be read again and again, and then applied to all facets of modern life.

Talk the talk and walk the walk in the steps of the White Wolf. Become the wolf you always were meant to be.
