The Kindness Method

Map your habits, set your own goals, and treat yourself with the kindness you truly deserve.Shahroo Izadi has a revolutionary message: treating yourself kindly is the only way to make changes that last. She is living proof that her method works - after years of yo-yo dieting she shed over 8 stone (and has kept it off ever since). Professional training coupled with personal experience led her to develop The Kindness Method (TM), where traditional strict regimes are turned upside down to leave you feeling empowered, positive and ready to embrace change.Whether it's weight loss, cutting down on drinking, improving relationships or ditching a dull job for one that you love, The Kindness Method will help you change any unwanted habit. Because when you shift your focus to your individual strengths and skills (rather than what you can't do), you too will find you have the power to change - for good.

A game-changing book about habits and beliefs that focuses on boosting our self-esteem and resilience, rather than demonising ourselves or our behaviours. And we can use it to change any unwanted behaviour, from struggling with prescription drugs to procrastinating to drinking too much prosecco.

Auteur

Shahroo Izadi is a Behavioural Change Specialist and author of The Kindness Method, which has been translated into five languages and was a Shelf Help Club book of the month. She started her career in the NHS before setting up her private practice. Her therapeutic approach is influenced by her frontline addiction treatment work in clinical, community and prison settings. During this time, Shahroo developed a knowledge of how to ellicit self-led change, even in those who are most resistant to it. She shares how the same evidence-based tools she used effectively with her clients in active addiction helped her to lose eight stone in weight, increase her self-esteem and help her self-manage a range of unwanted habits around food and negative self-talk.

Shahroo's work has been featured widely on BBC Radio1, the Telegraph, Psychologies and Red Magazine and she ran a sell-out workshop at The School of Life. Her work has been well-received by the field of mainstream personal development and she was invited to chair the One in Five panel on mental health for Women of the World 2018 at Southbank Center. She runs sell-out workshops in London and is regularly asked to speak publicly on behavioural change, mental health and addiction.
