Taming Your Gremlin (Revised Edition) Format: Paperback

The completely updated edition of this classic includes powerful methods for freeing oneself from negative self-talk, self-defeating behaviors, and limiting beliefs

Your gremlin, that inner critic that narrates your life, interprets your every experience. He has nothing good to say about you or anything you do. Just when you feel you’ve out-argued him, he changes his strategy. Grapple with him and you become more enmeshed. What he hates is simply being noticed. That’s the first step to his taming. This and many other powerful techniques await you.

This is a low-key but tremendously effective approach to getting out of your own way and banishing the tenacious nemesis within. Readers will learn:

• How simply noticing their gremlin is the first step in gremlin taming.
• How to experiment playfully with new actions and attitudes.
• Simple exercises for tuning in to their true self and tuning out their gremlin…and much more.
