Description

Write and draw your way to self-compassion through 50 simple creative exercises in this fully illustrated, research-backed journal

Have you ever realized that we’re kinder to other people than we are to ourselves? Based on the psychology of self-compassion and built using human-centered design thinking, The Art of Imperfection is a guided journal that challenges negative self-talk and builds new ways of viewing yourself and those around you. With 50 short creative activities to choose from, you’ll write letters to your past and future selves, make a smoothie of your feelings, perform a Viking funeral, and learn to be more present in your life and relationships. Structured so that you can build up to emotionally charged exercises, with beautiful illustrations to keep you company along the way, The Art of Imperfection is a creative guide to self-compassion in a messy world.
