The Kindness Method: The Highly Effective (and extremely enjoyable) Way to Change Your Habits

Description

'A game-changing book.' - Evening Standard Map your habits, set your own goals and treat yourself with the kindness you truly deserve. Shahroo Izadi has a revolutionary message: treating yourself kindly is the only way to make changes that last. She is living proof that her method works - after years of yo-yo dieting she shed over eight stone (and has kept it off ever since). Professional training coupled with personal experience led her to develop The Kindness Method, a totally non-judgemental approach which turns strict regimes upside down to leave you feeling empowered, positive and ready to embrace change. In The Kindness Method, Behavioural Change Specialist Shahroo invites you first, to give yourself a break - life can be stressful - and then learn how to strengthen your willpower like a muscle so you can sustain motivation for the long haul. These techniques may seem gentle, but the results are life-changing because the plan is tailored to you, and they can work for everything from alcohol addiction to procrastination to weight loss. By using the same techniques that she has used to help substance addicts recover from dependence, you too will find that you have the power to change - for good.

Almost overnight, her private practice had a months long waiting list and she was inundated with press requests. Shahroo's work has been featured on BBC Radio 1, Red magazine, the Telegraph and Psychologies.
