More DescriptionMany people who've experienced trauma tend to blame themselves. This tendency to self-blame often begins in childhood and is carried into adulthood and can manifest in a number of emotional and behavioral problems. You've probably tried to quiet your critical inner voice through avoidance and distraction, only to have the negative self-talk return time and time again to sabotage your self-esteem and interfere with your life. Fortunately, you possess the power to forgive yourself and discover your inner strength. With this workbook, you'll learn proven-effective skills that integrate self-forgiveness with acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), compassion-focused therapy (CFT), functional analytic psychotherapy (FAP), and relational frame theory (RFT). You'll develop the self-compassion and self-acceptance needed to overcome the sense of shame and guilt that's keeping you from a meaningful life. You'll also gain a new perspective on your life's story, empowering you to get in touch with your values and make an ongoing commitment to self-forgiveness. Forgiving yourself does not mean the pain of the past will go away forever, but it can reduce the burden you've placed on yourself. If you're ready to replace self-blame with self-empowerment and self-reliance, this book will be your guide on a journey toward healing and joy.
