Radical self-forgiveness The direct path to true self-acceptance

This is a spiritual guide for quieting one's own oppressive critic and healing self-inflicted wounds. In the first part, Tipping (Radical Forgiveness) provides a number of exercises that help readers explore all the characters, or "tapes," as the lingo goes, operating in their minds. In the second part, Tipping focuses on practicalities and uses work sheets to explore the five stages of radical self-forgiveness: telling the story, feeling the feelings, collapsing the story, reframing the story, and integrating the shift. While the author expresses genuine compassion and guidance for the journey of self-forgiveness, his book is most suitable for college-educated readers intent on seriously working through the steps he provides.
