How to look after your mental wellbeing in times of stressIn an age where selfesteem is seen as essential to mental health, we are seeing unprecedented rises in mental health difficulties from depression anxiety, eating disorders and many others. Is there not a dichotomy at play here? Is Self Esteem (ie 'I live for my rating') a reality at all or simply a myth we are all buying into. In this book bestselling author Harry Barry challenges the conventional wisdom and explores why the terms selfacceptance, selfrespect and selfactualization are more helpful in developing positive mental health.
