Self awareness is a fundamental principle in changing your mindset and loving yourself, especially when years of therapy, antidepressants and self-help books fall short.

As a functional depressive, Dr. Andrea Pennington enjoyed a high powered media career with all the outer appearances of success. But she was miserable inside. After years of battling ‘Imposter Syndrome’ and constantly striving for perfection, a spiritual awakening prompted her to break free and live as her Authentic Self.

Inspired to help others escape past conditioning and awaken to their true self she committed to sharing her personal discoveries. After more than a decade of research and experience with her patients, a 5-step self-discovery framework emerged called The Cornerstone Process, which she expertly presents in this book.

The Real Self Love Handbook includes the latest in-depth research from positive psychology, neuroscience, mindfulness meditation, energy psychology, compassion and life planning. It will help you:

• Learn Who You Really Are by uncovering your spiritual DNA, the blueprint of your Authentic Self, revealing who you were intended to be before the programming and socialization process took over

• Love Who You Really Are by showing you how to release useless mental programs, heal old wounds and forgive your past while embracing your spiritual gifts

• Live Who You Really Are by using the Diamond Life Design framework to architect an epic life based on your values, desires, and your Authentic Self

Dr. Andrea Pennington is an integrative physician, acupuncturist, and meditation teacher. As an international TEDx speaker and documentary filmmaker she has traveled the world to share insights on resilience and self-love to millions of people, including teaching at the International University of Monaco. Now, as Founder of the #RealSelfLove Movement Andrea speaks — and sings! — globally to reduce the stigma of mental illness and to support people on their journey to authentic living.
