How do you respond to the pressures of life? Haemin Sunim argues that only by accepting yourself-- and the flaws that make you who you are-- can you have compassionate and fulfilling relationships with your partner, your family, and your friends. He believes that, when you care for yourself first, the world begins to find you worthy of care. -- adapted from jacket
