Dr. Lakshmin talks about doing self-care that will change how you look at yourself and how you value and take care of yourself. While bubble baths and massages are a nice way to spend an hour or two, they do not change your life. They simply make it easier for the short-term. In this book Dr. Lakshmn talks about the way you talk to yourself, the way values can change you and your outlook, and how to implement these values and changes.

I decided I was going to actual do what the book said. It took me about 4 1/2 months to complete this book and its exercises. I would read one section a day and journal about what Dr. Lakshmin wrote and how it applied to my life. She had good examples of what she meant. She has her documentation if you want to explore an idea further. For me, this book would have been good 30-35 years ago. It does have workable ideas which I had put into my life as I got older. I did think about her ideas, her exercises, and her stories. I liked that she had done some of the same things I did. I was glad she learned at an earlier age than I did.

If you are looking to change your life, this book is a good starting point. It makes you go deeper into you than going to yoga class, or taking a bubble bath, or doing whatever you like with guilt and shame.… (plus d'informations)
