Discover the skills you need to face change and uncertainty with
confidence--and grow even stronger!
Change can happen so slowly that you might not even notice it. And
sometimes, it can happen in an instant, causing your world to come
crashing down. For many of us, change is scary, and as a result, we may
try to avoid it, or even actively resist it. But while burying our heads
in the sand can provide some short-term relief, our fear can grow and
manifest itself in life-altering ways like stress, anxiety, or
depression. The good news is that you can learn to transform how you
respond to unwanted change.
In What Makes You Stronger, you'll learn to apply the authors'
proven-effective DNA-v model (Discoverer, Noticer, Advisor, Value, and
Vitality)--a potent blend of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT),
mindfulness, and positive psychology to gain resilience in the face of
change. Using this simple six-step process, you'll not only cope with
change and adversity--but grow stronger from it! You'll discover
strategies for managing uncertainty, breaking unhealthy behavior
patterns, and reducing overwhelm when things start to feel out of
control.
If you're ready to stop running from change, and start living a life
guided by your values, this powerful guide will be with you, every step
of the way.
