My Perfectly Imperfect Life

127 Exercises for Self-Acceptance 

Authors: Irene Smit & Astrid van der Hulst

From the bestselling editors at Flow magazine comes a guided journal with a welcoming, come-as-you-are message: Embrace the things that make you you, flaws and all.   Charmingly illustrated and filled with activities and exercises, My Perfectly Imperfect Life  inspires readers to let go of the pressure to be perfect and to celebrate quirks, slipups and imperfections rather than judge them.

There are prompts for easing up on self-criticism.   For slowing down, and worrying less about accomplishments.   For keeping a sense of perspective — even a playful one — when things don’t go as planned.   It’s a thoughtful gift and an inspiring counterpoint to the too-perfectly-curated, omnipresent Instagram lifestyle.
