This book displays growth out of the despair of the author's first book, "Hating Self." In "Loving Self," the transformative power of self love and self care, take hold. Like the fragmented flower inside the book cover, "Loving Self" shows how our broken pieces can heal and bloom anew. Healing begins with Loving Self.
