We’ve also become more critical of our physical appearance, and this self-criticism can damage our confidence and stand in the way of our happiness.

Then you’ll have a choice—and a practice—to treat yourself with more self-acceptance.Self-awareness can help you break free from both your inner critic and the external world that stokes the fears and anxieties that we are never good enough, never have enough, and are never safe enough. The simple self-mirroring technique in this unique guide isn’t grounded in technology—just a commitment to be present with yourself.
