* Why we expect so much of ourselves and how failure to live up to our own expectations can affect our emotional and physical health
* How to stop being so hard on yourself when you fall short of your own expectations
* How to alleviate the guilt and shame that perfectionism can trigger
* How to accept inadequacies in the areas in which perfectionist thinking is particularly prevalent and damaging
BE HAPPY WITHOUT BEING PERFECT provides the keys to releasing women from the straitjacket of stress and worry, showing them how to relax, enjoy and embrace what they have.
