Bestselling Author Declares May 15 ?Freedom from Self-Improvement Day?
Self-help doesn’t work – self-acceptance is key to fulfillment
Bainbridge Island, WA (PRWEB) April 25, 2007 — Self-improvement is a one-way ticket to misery, says bestselling author Jennifer Louden. Instead, the path to happiness and fulfillment starts with acceptance of who and where you are. As a result, Louden is announcing the first annual “Freedom from Self-Improvement Day,” this May 15, 2007.
“Beating ourselves up because our thighs aren’t thin enough, or because we still haven’t perfected the art of ‘positive thinking’ hasn’t made us happier or the world a better place,” says Louden, the author of six books including ”The Woman’s Comfort Book” and her recently released ”The Life Organizer: A Woman’s Guide to a Mindful Year.” “Inner peace through endless self-improvement only serves to make us endlessly dissatisfied and disappointed. The biggest paradox in trying to change ourselves is that nothing happens until we embrace who and how we are right now, imperfections, perceived flaws and all.”
