    About this ebook

    Learn to stop self-judgment and practice self-love with these helpful stories, insights, and epiphanies from the Tiny Buddha community.

    We know we need to be good to ourselves if we want to be happy. So why is it so difficult? We are simultaneously the harsh judge and the lost, scared child who wants to stop feeling judged. It becomes a vicious cycle that only stops when we step outside ourselves and observe how we got ourselves stuck. Only then can we learn to practice gratitude and positive thinking.
     
    Lori Deschene, author and creator of TinyBuddha.com, shares forty insightful perspectives on why we judge ourselves so harshly—and how we can stop. Featuring stories, reflections, and epiphanies selected from hundreds of TinyBuddha.com contributors, Tiny Buddha’s Guide to Loving Yourself provides an honest look at what it means to overcome critical, self-judging thoughts and create a peaceful, empowered life.

    Lori Deschene

    Lori Deschene is the founder of Tiny Buddha, a self-help site that draws inspiration from thousands of contributors who share their stories and life lessons on the blog. She’s also the author of Tiny Buddha’s Gratitude Journal, Tiny Buddha’s Worry Journal, the upcoming Tiny Buddha’s Inner Strength Journal, and more. She started the site after a decade struggling with depression, bulimia, and self-loathing because she wanted to recycle her pain into something useful for others, turn her former shame into pride, and enable others to do the same.  Lori identifies as many things—an introvert, a highly sensitive person, a dreamer, and a work-in-progress, to name a few. She loves traveling with her boyfriend, reading true crime books in the tub, playing with her sons, and planning all the adventures she dreams of one day sharing with them.
