Figuring out what you really need is not that easy. And fulfilling those needs is not easy either. However, both are part of good self-care and thus a good life. Basic physical and emotional needs such as safety, relationships, or self-esteem must not be neglected. People who know how to satisfy these needs are less manipulable and can shape their lives more actively. With the help of many reflection questions and practical exercises, experienced psychotherapist Cornelia Dehner-Rau enables readers to find ways to recognize their own needs and embark on a search for their personal sources of strength.
