Stop Shoulding All Over Yourself: Making the Journey from Condemnation to Compassion (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781637465301)

Everyone of us struggle with faulty ways of thinking that damage our emotional health, relationships with others, and spiritual growth and development. One of the most toxic and destructive ways we view reality is to think in terms of how things should or shouldn't be, something that keeps us from accepting the difficult things that come our way and coping with them properly. This book examines twenty of the most toxic "shoulds" we suffer from and how to overcome them so that our lives can flourish.
