CLASSIC SELF-HELP FROM A RESPECTED PIONEER OF PSYCHOTHERAPY
All of us worry about something, big or small, every day. But much of
the emotional misery we feel is an overreaction, and it can be
significantly reduced, using the techniques you'll find in this landmark
book.
World renowned therapist Dr. Albert Ellis, who created Rational-Emotive
Behavior Therapy (REBT), believed that anger, anxiety, and depression
are not only unnecessary, they're unethical, because when we allow
ourselves to become emotionally upset, we're being unfair and unjust to
ourselves. Thinking negative thoughts is a choice we can refuse to
make. Applying the proven, time-tested principles of REBT is a simple,
logical way to find true mental health and happiness.
REBT acknowledges the power of emotions, but it also helps us understand
which feelings are healthy and which are not. This classic book teaches
you how to:
*Retrain your brain to focus on the positive aspects of your life and
face each obstacle without unnecessary despair
*Control your emotional destiny
*Refuse to upset yourself about upsetting yourself
*Solve practical problems as well as emotional problems
*Conquer the tyranny of "shoulds"
...and much more, providing all the tools you need to take back your
life--and your happiness. If you can refuse to make yourself miserable,
you're that much closer to making yourself happy--every day.
