Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

You find yourself facing a painful situation, but don't you have the emotional resources to overcome it? Expectations have been placed upon you, to fight against pain and difficult situations and conquer them. Unfortunately, you have fallen into a trap. Pain, anger, fear, sadness and shame are notoriously difficult emotions to manage as they have been forged by nature to protect us. It is natural for humans to suffer. However, suffering is not just about physical or psychological pain. People also suffer from emotional pain, doubts in self-worth, uncomfortable feelings, and painful memories. Because we dread or worry about suffering, we do everything we can to avoid such feelings. We constantly seek to minimize our suffering. Many of us give importance to improving our feelings, but a good life is a lot more than simply the absence of suffering, and we all want to live a good life and make the best of our short stay on this planet. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focusses on the problem of human suffering, but it also deals with much deeper matters. It addresses the understanding of human suffering as an important factor in realising a good life. This new form of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) asks important questions such as "What is my real purpose in life?" YOU NEED TO READ THIS BOOK IF YOU HAVE SUFFERED ANY OF THE FOLLOWING IN THE LAST 3 MONTHS: . Anxiety, depression or anger. . Intense or uncontrollable emotional explosions. . Instability in interpersonal relationships and self-esteem. . Concerns about abandonment. . Feeling desperately misunderstood. . Feelings of helplessness and despair. . Self-harm and notions of suicide. WHAT YOU WILL LEARN FROM THIS BOOK: · You will learn to notice your thoughts, images or memories, recognising them for the products of the mind that they are, and not absolute realities. · You will learn to Look at your own experience from a privileged position, from above, decentralized, promoting the perception of your own emotional experience. · You will learn to give up control of your thoughts and let them go, give them space, sort through them and thus diminish the influence and the power that they wield. As you can see, it's a vicious cycle, and the longer this cycle continues, the more we become out of balance. We can do something about human suffering when we become aware of the cycle and learn how to respond differently to our pain. Stop living someone else's life now and learn to break the vicious cycle of suffering.
