Description
It's time to start feeling good about yourself! In this go-to guide, a licensed professional counselor offers 101 quick tips and tools to help you overcome self-doubt, silence your inner critic, be assertive, boost your self-esteem, and embrace your greatness.
In our image-obsessed world, it's easy to compare yourself to friends, celebrities, and models. Social media has skewed our perception of reality by only offering images of people at their best. But the truth is that most people struggle with self-criticism and self-doubt-at least some of the time. So, how can you stop paying attention to your inner critic and start focusing on what makes you truly great?
In Embrace Your Greatness, you'll find powerful-yet incredibly simple-tools grounded in mindfulness, acceptance, self-compassion, and positive psychology to help you start feeling good about yourself. The book includes unique and engaging activities and exercises to help you put a stop to that nagging inner critic, overcome perfectionism, and develop lasting self-confidence. You'll also discover ways to be more assertive, develop healthy relationships that support a healthy you, and cultivate an unshakable sense of optimism about yourself and your life.
If you need a quick confidence boost, this fun guide offers 101 ways to nix your nagging inner critic and start loving who you are.

Belmont has written yet another book that hits the nail on the head. This book
is a masterpiece full of specific strategies for all of us who ever struggle

proven strategies to help us feel good about ourselves and truly embrace our

“Embrace
Your Greatness has actionable tips presented in fifty straightforward,
non-intimidating exercises to improve self-esteem. Judith’s approachable tone
engages readers in a way that encourages them to complete the exercises. The
questions at the end of each section provide takeaways and additional
reinforcement. We especially love number twelve: using a drop of food coloring
in a glass of water to see how one negative thought can influence our
perspective. This is a great resource for a quick pick-me-up, as well as
long-term change.”
—Kelly and Michelle Skeen, PsyD, coauthors of Just As You Are

each subset. It’s a book you can pick up anytime and take a few healthy
bites from without becoming overwhelmed.”
