How to Be Enough: Self-Acceptance for Self-Critics and Perfectionists. With Dr. Ellen Hendriksen

from Untangle

Encore: Today’s episode is with Clinical Psychologist and author, Dr. Ellen Hendriksen. Her new book is called How to Be Enough: Self-Acceptance for Self-Critics and Perfectionists. What a great title! Ellen shares the truth behind perfectionism and why many of us never feel quite ‘good enough.’ Ever feel imposter syndrome? Most of us do. She delivers amazing advice on how we can allow for mistakes (because we’re human!) without lowering our expectations or standards. She discusses how we can move from self-criticism to kindness, from control to authenticity, from procrastination to productivity and from comparison to, finally, contentment. She gives us the roadmap for finding self-acceptance and even some tips on how we can rewrite our own Inner Rulebook. If you’re wired to be judgmental of yourself and others…and who isn’t!! You’ll find this to be incredibly helpful. As always, we’re Untangle, the podcast from Muse, the brain sensing headband dedicated to unlocking your brains potential AND Meditation Studio the five star app. Unlock 30 days of Meditation Studio for free at choosemuse.com/meditationstudio. Resources: ellenhendriksen.comLearn more about your ad choices.
