Keep on Shining is the second book by Susan Malone-Hoyle exploring the complexities of self-esteem and delving deeper into the subject of personal well-being. A passionate advocate of self-help and therapeutic approaches to personal growth, Susan draws on more than twenty years of experience as a counselling practitioner, supervisor, trainer and group therapist. She is also a Reiki Master, accredited mindfulness teacher and author of Shine Your Light, her first self-help book exploring the subject of self-esteem.
Keep on Shining explores the journeys of people who have experienced low self-esteem and shows how, through therapy and personal work, they have learned to value themselves and develop a stronger sense of self-worth. Alongside these stories, Susan shares aspects of her own experience of low self-esteem, including some of the struggles she has faced and the difficult choices she made when she did not value herself.
The book offers practical tools and approaches to help readers identify the changes they want to make and take steps towards greater self-esteem and well-being. Drawing on her many years as an addiction therapist, Susan also devotes a chapter to the philosophy of the Twelve Steps and the insights it can offer on personal growth and change.
Above all, Susan is passionate about giving people choices and recognising their individual strengths. She believes that, when given the right support and opportunities, everyone has the capacity to make positive changes in their lives.
