Out of the Box for Life: (Being Free Is Just a Choice)

<p> In this radical approach to psychological wellness, psychotherapist Dr. Warren Berland proves that no matter how stuck you feel or how deep your psychological wounds, you can be free.No training is necessary. It doesn't even have to take a lot of time. In <i>Out of the Box for Life,</i> you are given the keys to a happy, healthy life.</p><p>Berland's box is a metaphor for the way many of us live our lives--trapped in a prison of our own making. Through a series of remarkably simple exercises, Berland shows you how to almost immediately break free of your psychological prison, essentially by taping over that annoying negative voice that plays in many a head on a continuous loop. He shows us how to accept that the thoughts and feelings we identify as ourselves, and which we hold so dear, are not us. The feelings of fesr, worry, and insecurity reflect a mechanistic response to life rather than an expression of our true self. When we embrace this realization, our emotions lose their power over us.</p><p><i>Out of the Box for Life</i> will show you how to find freedom and possibility in each moment. Surrender to this inner knowing and strengthen your resolve, and your confidence will grow.</p>
