"'Me' Time: Finding the Balance Between Taking Care of Others and Taking Care of Yourself" was written for anyone who spends so much time and energy taking care of everyone else that there is little time or energy left for self-care. You will recognize yourself in the book's stories and think, "This book is about me! How did she get inside my head?" You will find explanations for things that you didn't know you needed to have explained. The author explores the reasons for a lack of balance and its relationship to the codependency, low self-esteem, perfectionism, and relationship problems that she sees every day in her psychotherapy practice. More importantly, she provides practical, easy to use techniques to turn negative thoughts and actions into positive, life-changing ones. Each chapter starts with a quiz to identify issues addressed in that chapter and ends with suggestions for "Putting It Into Action." Numerous examples are given to help you to understand and apply the ideas presented. This book is a must-read if you feel like your life is mostly about everyone else and not about you.
