JUST AS YOU ARE

¦ 62 percent of teen girls
feel insecure; 71 percent
feel their looks don't
measure up.

self-compassion, which
cultivates an enduring
sense of well-being.

In Just As You Are, psychologist Michelle Skeen and her daughter, Kelly Skeen, offer simple tips to help teens overcome feelings of inadequacy and unworthiness, stop comparing themselves to others, and be more
open and accepting of all aspects of who they are. They'll also learn how to be more aware of their thoughts and feelings in the moment using powerful mindfulness tools, and build a plan of action for the future
based on their values.
