- Summary:
- This book describes the 10 psychological truths that are imperative to maintaining mental health and well-being. This book combines extensive psychological research with decades of clinical practice.
- Contents:
- Emotions are not mysterious visitors : they can be identified and understood
- You can change your compulsive behaviors if you change your thoughts and adress your feelings
- Every behavior has an underlying purpose, and it's not always what we think
- We all sabotage ourselves unless we confront our internal saboteur
- All behavior requires permission so we must learn what we're permitting ourselves to do
- Emotional energy is finite and needs to be invested rather than wasted on wishing, worrying and whining
- Our relationships depend on self-empowerment and not enabling others
- Ego boundaries protect us from rejection, insult and intimidation
- You can trust people to be who they are, not who you want them to be
- Time doesn't heal all pain : we heal ourselves by learning how to let go
- Putting the truths to work for you.
