The Power of Labels: How Do We Get Labeled? How Do Labels Predetermine Our Lives? How to Get Rid of Them and Live a Happier Life... Marsy Beron

Publisher Marketing: Imagine looking at yourself in a crooked mirror. How do you see yourself in it? - small, pointed head, short legs, as if cut in two, and your body - almost a square. Or your whole body has turned into a thin stick, about to break down. Or your nose ... Wow! Every crooked mirror deforms different parts of our bodies, and none of them reflect the reality of us. The same happens with our minds. We accumulate deformities/deflections throughout our lives because we cannot avoid interaction with other people. For good or bad, through their judgments, they instill ideas in our minds about our own personality, in other words - they label us. Some people in our environment are well-meaning and honest, others are not quite so. But they are all mirrors in which we have looked at our reflections since early childhood. And none of these mirrors are perfectly straight and none of them show us the truth about us. Well, it's time we "straightened up" the crooked mirror.... "The Power of Labels" addresses major situations we experience from infancy to old age, which may distort the way we see ourselves, and label us. It contains personal stories, exercises, a few thought experiments and many tips. The book is designed for people who are fed up with the situation they are in. The yearning for change would take you on a journey back in time - to your childhood, your teenage years and back to the present. It is only by daring to venture deeper into our souls, revisiting old ghost and making peace with them, that we would manage to heal old wounds and ultimately - our lives. "The Power of Labels" is in no way a guide for healing severe psychological traumas. But it can set you on the way to finding the better, wiser, happier version of yourself.
