How to Understand Yourself
A compendium of psychological tests, questions, and exercises, to help you get to know yourself better
We spend our lives inside ourselves, and yet understanding our inner world remains one of our most complex challenges. This enlightening and practical book offers a collection of transformative psychological tests designed to illuminate the hidden dimensions of our psyches.
Through a curated selection of 55 psychological exercises developed by various renowned psychologists and psychotherapists β from the revealing Word Association Test to the profound Kinetic Family Drawing exercise β you'll embark on an intimate journey of self-discovery. These tests invite you to look beneath the surface of your conscious thoughts, uncovering the subtle narratives that shape your emotions, relationships, and sense of self.
Each test is an invitation to explore your unspoken fears, your deepest desires, and the unconscious patterns that drive your behaviours, providing unprecedented insight into your inner workings.
