About the Book
Antoinetta Vogels’ HEALTHY SENSE OF SELF builds awareness of the hidden drives that fuel your reasons for doing or avoiding things, so you get more understanding of what truly motivates you. Gaining insight into your motivations helps to improve your health and mental clarity as well as to address relationship challenges, overcome anger, anxiety, or depression, and become more confident. With a Healthy Sense of Self you feel the freedom to live your life the way you want to; without it, you become the slave of other people’s approval! Ideally, your Sense of Self develops in early childhood, but the influence of narcissistic parents, teachers, or other caregivers can negatively affect its growth. If your Sense of Self fails to emerge, it can result in a lifelong fight for acknowledgement and an addiction to approval. A continuous need to prove yourself leads to stress, which can result in disease and dysfunction. But it is possible to reverse this unhealthy mindset and become a healthier and happier person! HEALTHY SENSE OF SELF: the Secret to Being Your Best Self introduces the Sense of Self Method® and provides you with the insights and tools necessary to gain access to the reasons behind your choices and behavior. Once these drives emerge from the shadows of your subconscious, you are in the best possible position to rethink your goals, adjust your motivation, and heal your Self (Heal thy Self). You will become free to be your own person and live life to your fullest potential.
