Book Description

6 Jan 2001 0971030901 978-0971030909 Revised
This book reveals the origin of self-hate, how self-hate works, how to identify it, and how to go beyond it. It provides examples of some of the forms self-hate takes, including taking blame but not credit, holding grudges, and trying to be perfect, and explores the many facets of self-hate, including its role in addiction, the battering cycle, and the illusion of control. After addressing these factors, it illustrates how a meditation practice can be developed and practised in efforts to free oneself from self-hating beliefs.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cheri Huber is awesome 8 Mar 2010
Format:Paperback
In a self help industry populated with books on how to IMPROVE yourself, Cheri Huber thankfully offers another way. While I don't totally agree with her concept of how we are "socialised" in this book, her methods on how to love yourself, be yourself and stop being a huge bundle of manic worry are so useful. I can just pick up this book at almost any page and it offers support. Try her other stuff too, all variations on the same theme but all have useful insights and ways to untangle years of negative conditioning AND you don't need to be a buddhist.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing and simplistic 10 May 2008
Format:Paperback
I had high hopes for this book and felt I needed something substantial and authentic for this difficult and big subject. Instead I found it patronising, pretty annoying and even childish. I really respect that a lot of people feel they have been helped by this book, by reading the other reviews (which I based my purchase on) and am very happy for them, but I think this is an unusual kind of a book and people should be aware of that before they buy. I had not encountered a Cheri Huber book before and so was expecting a normal approach. Instead it is filled with large handwriting style writing, with sometimes only a line or two on a page, and a lot of SHOUTING, as if this is the way to make sure the message gets across... There is some good stuff in here, but it is smothered in gung-ho "lets all be fabulous" language, with little substance to back it up, little to go into the complexities and processes behind this painful thorny territory. As far as I have found, there are no real exercises to take the reader deeper into their situation/feelings/process, just mainly a lot of jolly positive statements. It could all be done in about 20 pages and if this book had cost about £3 I think that would be a reasonable deal. As it is, it feels very overpriced for what it is (more of a pamphlet than a book) and I would advice people to try and get a loan copy (maybe your local library has one?) before you buy to see if her very idiosyncratic style is something for you. I wish it had been for me but sadly not, I feel this was a pretty wasted ten pounds and I'll keep looking for something more helpful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to read but full of insight 7 Jun 2011
By jespc
Format:Paperback
This is a easy to read book, in a personal handwritten style. It is very useful for someone starting to get interested in Buddhist ideas/philosophy or who is interested in self-help type books. It was very encouraging to read a book that helps you accept yourself as you are and not to feel under pressure from other people. It may not be to everyone's taste but I found it helpful.
