About this title

Synopsis

Just as a battery can't function without a negative and positive charge, our "negative emotions" are as essential to our functioning and health as our "positive emotions." This book provides simple tools for exploiting every distressful event for personal growth. Readers learn to fully USE their emotions, versus feeling used by them. Those faced with loss of a relationship, job, or loved one; health problems; abuse; crisis; etc., find exceptional value. Top testimonials. Research-based, the book sparkles with powerful, unique insights. Packed with examples, illustrations, case studies, exercises, and appendices. A marvelous guide for developing emotional strength, achieving personal empowerment, and gaining freedom from self-judgment.
