About this title

Synopsis

If you suffer from Irritable Bowel Syndrome, you know just how much of an impact IBS has had on you. Have you cut back on your hobbies? Do you see less of your friends? Do you constantly worry about how IBS symptoms might affect your daily activities? If so, Better Living with IBS can give you back the life you long for! Structured in a clear, easy-to-use workbook format, with lots of practical exercises, Better Living with IBS is your guide to living a happier, richer, more fulfilling life. The step-by-step program, based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), will give you the mental tools to deal effectively with your IBS symptoms. Instead of constantly fighting your symptoms, this approach will teach you how to step away from the struggle, and in so doing, substantially reduce their impact.
