The Spiritual Road to Self-Esteem

A seven-step guide to loving yourself that reveals 

the hidden blocks to self-esteem and inner peace




Today many people cannot find lasting self-esteem because, quite simply, neither materialism nor traditional religion teaches us what the “self” really is. With penetrating insight, The Spiritual Road to Self-Esteem shows step by step how to attain true self-worth by learning to look inside, not outside, for validation. 


Author Kim Michaels gives expert advice on how to avoid the most common pitfalls to both self-esteem and spiritual growth, including the tendency to judge ourselves based on unrealistic standards. He describes the seven stages that spiritually minded people typically go through as they work from a surface level to deeper levels of self-worth. In the tradition of wisdom teachers like Eckhart Tolle, he explores the inner workings of the self and reveals how we can free ourselves from the strategies and illusions of the ego that prevent us from fulfilling our life’s purpose.
