Authorities in our business will tell in no uncertain terms that Lorem Ipsum is that huge, huge no no to forswear forever. Not so fast, I'd say, there are some redeeming factors in favor of greeking text, as its use is merely the symptom of a worse problem to take into consideration.

Product care

Anyway, you still use Lorem Ipsum and rightly so, as it will always have a place in the web workers toolbox, as things happen, not always the way you like it, not always in the preferred order.

Product details

Made possible by exploring innovative molded plywood techniques, Iskos-Berlin’s Soft Edge Chair blends strong curves with extreme lightness to create a three-dimensionality not usually possible with 2-D plywood.

    A MUST HAVE for self work
    This book was so useful in discovering ways to have compassion for myself. I was able to use the exercises to develop a personal growth mindset that helped me develop skills to give myself more self compassion. This book is a must if you are wanting to build self-esteem and confidence.

  2. VEML

    Life changing
    This has made a big difference in my ability to self-regulate, and I’ve recommended it to so many people.What I really love about this is that it doesn’t dodge accountability or repair. It just makes owning your mistakes easier. And it validates anger and frustration – then channels it into positive action. It’s not even particularly upbeat, though it helps you live your best life amid all of ups and downs that are the state of the world.

    Changed my life. Seriously.
    I got this book at the recommendation of my therapist and boy has it changed my life. I haven’t finished it yet, but there were a few life-changing statements in the introduction alone. It has allowed me to understand that self-compassion is NOT selfish and is actually essential to surviving. It has really opened up my eyes to the MAJOR differences in the compassion I show others vs. the compassion (or lack thereof) that I show myself. I’ll admit that I’m truly devoting a lot of time to this and accepting it completely, which I have found to be the most beneficial. I have found that having a copy of an “emotion wheel” and a list of tones (positive, neutral, and negative) on hand has also been helpful in navigating some of the exercises throughout the book. I have only been working through this book for a short period of time, but it has already had a positive impact in my life.*For reference: I’m a 22 y/o female, have anxiety, depression, and avoidant personality disorder, and have been on antidepressants for years (this is my dad’s account excuse the profile pic). This book has been one of the first truly beneficial resources that I have been introduced to. It has not only helped me work on self-compassion, but it has also helped me be more mindful in situations where I’m usually very anxious and start overthinking. I would highly recommend this book.The chapters are set up by introducing a topic & providing real world examples that are easy to understand. At the end of the chapter they have exercises where they have you reflect on certain situations (they prompt you) and write down your thoughts. There’s usually a few exercises that end up with you really breaking down how you think/act. They usually address your true inner feelings that you may have been burying or ignoring (hence the emotion wheel), and they bring it back around to exercises that allow you modify the negative behaviors that you’re been reflecting on to wrap up the chapter. I personally think spending a decent amount of time on the exercises is truly beneficial to individual success.(Sorry for the novel-length review but I truly think this is an amazing resource.)

    Self-Compassion
    Love this workbook

  5. Maeve

    Thank you
    Book was nice, but didn’t need it as it was a gift and the person I gifted it to already had a copy.

  6. Mary Laipple

    So helpful if you are trying to find steps to a healthy way of loving yourself
    I really love this. It took me a while to open the book. But when I did, I was so happy that it was easy to read. Simple steps that I find are really working in my life. If you struggle with depression and how to find steps to really love yourself… This is a great action book

  7. Edgar G.

    Helping me to live in my skin
    This book has the potential to change your life. Not overnight and not in some magical way, but slowly and realistically. If all you’ve known is motivation through tough talk and dealing with emotions through suppression and avoidance, then this book can be revolutionary. Please consider giving it a try, I’m grateful I did.

    This is a Like and dislike Book.
    First, let me say I am not a “big” word fan at all. If I were to read this book on a non-digital copy I would have tossed it in chapter 1. Too many times while reading this book on my Kindle app, I have to look words up to get the full grasp of what the heck the author is trying to say or explain. I am not opposed to learning new words. But this is a topic that for me is extremely hard to get through. So why not say what you need to say in a simpler way of saying what it is you have to say. Second, I will say I like learning and practicing this stuff. The goal of this workbook is to have more self-compassion, which in conjunction with my head Dr. I am learning to do. It was his recommendation to read and go through this book.

  9. Leslie

    This is a truly great book with very important practices to practice in life. It is very simple to follow and use. I am only beginning this practice, and it does also touch on nervous system practices which I know have changed my life and which I feel are important for every person who lives. This is a book that I believe will help to establish inner peace and purpose in whoever practices it.

  11. roxanne

  12. Kaska

    El libro muy bueno para aprender las herramientas de ayuda con ansiedad y depresión. Ese libro no es solo para las personas que necesitan ayuda pero también es muy útil para las personas que conviven con personas con ansiedad do depresión (se aprende mejor las herramientas de como sobrepasar esos estados). Contiene autoejercicios, explica en la manera muy fácil los sentimientos y comportamientos. Muy útil de verdad.

  13. Clarisse

    I cannot recommend to do it all over again every once in a while.
