Powerful and customizable tools grounded in process-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help you heal emotional pain and live a vital, values-based life
Do you struggle with overwhelming emotions, such as anger, anxiety, sadness, shame, or self-blame? Emotions--even intensely distressing ones--are a natural part of life. But if your emotions are so intense that they're hurting your relationships or getting in the way of your happiness, it's time for a change.
Written by a team of mental health experts, Healing Emotional Pain Workbook is a step-by-step guide to understanding your emotions and enhancing your overall well-being. Rather than a one-size-fits-all treatment, this workbook takes a tailored approach to help you treat the root cause of your emotional pain--whether it's avoidance, internalization, or rumination. As a result, you'll create a personalized plan to help you overcome intense emotions and live the life you want.
With this workbook, you'll learn to:
- Stop avoiding and start showing up to your life
- Replace self-blame with self-compassion
- Make decisions based on your values, not your emotions
- Break free from repetitive negative thinking
- Increase psychological flexibility
- Accept your thoughts and emotions--rather than trying to outrun them!
When our emotions spiral out of control, they can result in chronic mental suffering. This workbook can help you change the way you react to emotions, before they negatively impact your life.
