The Sunday Times Top 10 Bestseller From the author of the phenomenal multi-million copy
bestseller The Things You Can See Only When You Slow Down Hearing the words 'be good to
yourself first then to others' was like being struck by lightning. Many of us respond to the
pressures of life by turning inwards and ignoring problems sometimes resulting in anxiety or
depression. Others react by working harder at work at school or at home hoping that this will
make ourselves and the people we love happier. But what if being yourself is enough? Just as we
are advised on airplanes to take our own oxygen first before helping others we must first be
at peace with ourselves before we can be at peace with the world around us. In this beautiful
follow-up to his international bestseller The Things You Can See Only When You Slow Down
Buddhist monk Haemin Sunim turns his trademark wisdom and kindness to self-care arguing that
only by accepting yourself - and the flaws which make you who you are - can you have
compassionate and fulfilling relationships with your partner family and friends. Even products
labelled 'limited edition' are made on a production line with hundreds that are exactly the
same. But there is only one you in the world. *** Haemin writes beautifully and simply... these
vital life lessons resonate deeply and easilyMiranda Hart The world could surely use a little
more love a little more compassion and a little more wisdom. In Love for Imperfect Things
