I Heart Me

De: David R. Hamilton PhD

Narrado por: David R. Hamilton PhD

How much love do you have for yourself? Not the narcissistic "aren't I wonderful?" kind of love but the essential regard for self that empowers you and helps you navigate through life. The type of love that enables you to feel safe and secure in who you are and inspires you to make choices that are good for your authentic self.

When scientist David Hamilton realized that his own lack of self-love was sabotaging him in hundreds of subtle ways and more than a handful of major ways, he devised an experiment using himself as the guinea pig. For more than a year, David studied the latest research into brain chemistry, neuroscience, and psychotherapeutic and personal development techniques. He realized that self-love was as much about biology as psychology - that self-worth is in our genes but trained out of us. The biological drive to seek connection with others often leads us to try to be someone else to win love and approval. But the brain can be reprogrammed, and David devised 27 powerful exercises that he tested on himself and presents in the book to help you:

• Increase your own level of self-worth
• Connect powerfully with your authentic self
• Attain a greater sense of happiness and general well-being
• Create stronger and more real connections with others

Great book

I thoroughly enjoyed the presentation and objectives of this book. I read it in a book club and it was fun. I love the activities/gym assignments

I am enough.

At the beginning of the year, I wrote a few goals that sounded more as affirmations then any thing else. My number one was not to doubt myself and as a parenthesis I had wrote (I am enough). The funny thing is that this book found me, I don’t listen, read or purchase help self books. Yet, as I finished it I felt moved in so many ways. January is long gone, and your kind and loving words have come to remind me as the year is coming very soon to an end, that I indeed am enough. Thank you.

"Opened my heart".... Iam Enough"

Dr. David is a kindred spirit of all of us! Thank you ,for sharing your essence .

A Work in Progress

This book contains many tips to utilise throughout the day in order to increase your value to yourself. I am still working on some of these issues but appreciated Dr Hamilton sharing his experience as is always good to know we are not alone.

Relatable, prescriptive ways to navigate life

it is best for me to learn from someone who's been there, and that is what makes this so helpful.

Amazing

The combination of science based facts, knowledge and personal experience makes this an absolute favorite for me. I strongly recommend it.

Love Dr. Hamilton!

This book was the first of many books I read on my journey to self-love. I was drawn to this book because of its bases in neuroscience and its practical steps to implement self love in every day life. I love Dr. Hamilton's narration, it brings a personal touch to his work, however I ended up purchasing the physical book just so that I could better follow along his advantageous "self-love gyms." After reading this book, family and friends have mentioned that my posture has changed, I hold my head up higher, I speak more eloquently, and I walk with more purpose. This book also gave me the confidence to make the decision to go back to school to pursue my true passion in life. I would say I am not exaggerating when I claim this book truly changed my life!

Accent makes it difficult to understand

The message and applications are very practical but his accent makes it difficult to understand at times.

Great book!

Thank you, Dr. Hamilton, for writing such a heart-felt book! It solidified my belief of how important it is to love one’s self. Your story about Oscar made me choke up. How lucky you were to have him in your life for those few wonderful years!

Pretty much the only self improvement/personal growth book you’ll need

I downloaded this book shortly after I discovered the root of all self-help is self-love and self acceptance. While I am grateful for other books I have read in the personal development genre, it really all boils down to the principles in this book. I found it at just the right time and would encourage anyone remotely interested to just go ahead and get the book. Worst thing that happens don’t love it, best thing that happens is it changes your life.
