Be Who You Are

How to build a happy personality

This book Be Who You Are: Developing Your Christian Personality, is about how to improve one’s personality, self-esteem and virtue. Several authors from different disciplines, such as doctors, philosophers, theologians and educators, participate in the book. Wenceslao Vial is the editor.

Following models that bring us closer to our own identity is a sure way to grow humanly. Today, more than in the past, knowledge of psychology seems to be necessary to better understand and develop the spiritual dimension. Faced with a high number of psychologically wounded people, and with mental illness on the increase, it seemed useful to have a clear text of prevention, which goes beyond the usual contemporary psychology.

For this reason, the book seeks to enter into the depths of the relationship between psychology and spiritual life, in order to help each and every one to “Be who you are”: a woman or a man, authentically happy.
