Gifts of Imperfection. How to Love Yourself as You Are

We all feel ashamed of our shortcomings. We try to behave and look in such a way that others do not suspect us of vulnerability, of the fact that we are not as good as we try to seem. The modern person often experiences feelings of shame, and the author of the book, famous American psychologist Brené Brown, calls shame an epidemic of our culture. Having dedicated many years to studying the stories of various people, she concludes that only by accepting our imperfections, loving our flaws, and allowing ourselves to be who we are can we live to the fullest, in harmony with ourselves and the world. Brené Brown offers a challenging, yet unexpected and bold path to self-healing. The results of research and the author's personal experience form the basis of one of the most sincere books in popular psychology.
