Book ID/图书代码： 09700010B39783

English Summary/英文概要： Do you save your harshest judgments for yourself?

The way we talk to ourselves is often unkind and filled with self-judgments. These overly harsh self-criticisms can make us feel unworthy and incomplete. What if what you really need is not higher standards for yourself, but greater self-compassion? In Living with Your Heart Wide Open, you’ll discover how mindfulness and self-compassion can free you from the thoughts and beliefs that create feelings of inadequacy and learn to open your heart to the loving-kindness within you and in the world around you.

Based in Western psychotherapy and Buddhist psychological principles, this book guides you past painful and self-limiting beliefs about yourself and toward a new perspective of nonjudgmental awareness and acceptance of who you are, just as you are. You’ll receive gentle guidance in mindfulness and compassion practices that will lead you away from unproductive, self-critical thoughts and help you live more freely and fearlessly, with your heart wide open.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 你是否总是把最苛刻的评判留给你自己？

我们自言自语的方式时常充满着很不人道自我判断。这些过于严厉的自我批判会令我们觉得人生毫无价值，支离破碎。如果你真正需要的不是过高的自我要求，而是更多的自我怜悯呢？在本书当中，你将了解意识和怜悯是如何帮助你摆脱那些造成你无能无力的想法和信念的，并学会向周围世界那些仁慈和关爱敞开心胸，从而善待自己。

本书以西方心理疗法和佛教心理学原理为基础，指导读者克服过去那些令其痛苦不堪以及自我约束的信念，从而达到一种非自我批判意识状态，并学会接受最真实的自我。通过本书，你将学习到关于意识和怜悯方面温和的指导建议；利用这些建议，你将慢慢远离那些令你消极懈怠，自我指责想法，渐渐走向一种更加自由无虑，心胸开阔的生活状态。(XMM & CK)

"The practice of mindfulness is also helpful in ridding oneself of feelings of inadequacy, self-loathing, and a constant sense of isolation according to the authors, both of whom have founded and directed mindfulness-based stress-reduction programs across the country. Pulling from Western psychology and Buddhist thought, Flowers and Stahl explore the concept of self-authorship and help readers, through mindfulness practices, to break free of defeating stories and experience insight and self-compassion. Topics of interest include why pleasing others doesn’t work in the long run and how self-improvement efforts can be a trap. Clear and comprehensive, this book is a valuable addition to mindfulness literature."－From Library Journal
