“A powerfully detailed method of dealing with life’s pains and injustices.” Kirkus Book Reviews
Pain is part of living; yet, humans naturally resist pain and – in the process of resisting – unintentionally create more pain for themselves and those they love. In contrast, acceptance softens the struggle with pain and increases the ability to live fully. While many self-help books discuss the importance of acceptance, few of them describe how to develop it. Now psychologist, Bryan Bushman, provides a step-by-step road-map to help anyone develop acceptance and rise above physical and emotional pain. Combining eastern and western wisdom with the latest psychological research, Dr. Bushman provides readers with easy-to-remember steps that can help them reduce suffering and live richer, more-balanced lives!
Universal in application, there is something here for everyone. Whether you experience symptoms of depression, anxiety, trauma, physical illness, relationship problems or addictive behaviors, your pain doesn’t have to define you. Using playful humor and powerful case examples, Becoming Okay (When You’re Not Okay) demonstrates how you can build (or re-build) a life of vitality and meaning – even while experiencing some of life’s greatest trials.“A well-written self-help book that proves anyone can rebuild their lives – highly recommended!” [4 ½ out of 5 stars] TopShelf Reviews
“Recommended reading for proactive self-help readers who too commonly receive ethereal admonitions not backed up by actual step-by-step processes.” D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Reviews
“… a terrific job of summarizing succinctly the key steps to suffer less… offers a solid, helpful pathway to healing emotional pain.” BlueInk Reviews
“The author packs a great deal of information into his pages, and he delivers all of it with the smooth skill of an expert teacher…” Kirkus Book Reviews
