Synopsis

Transform negative thoughts, manage intense emotions, and improve overall well-being—in just ten minutes a day.

If you struggle to control intense thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, you are not alone. Millions suffer from severe emotion regulation problems, resulting in anxiety, depression, and other mental health disorders. Negative thoughts, difficult emotions, and unhealthy behaviors are hard to manage, and can be overwhelming. What you need is a quick, easy-to-commit-to program for building greater self-awareness and intentionality—so you can take charge of your emotions and start living the life you want.

The DBT Skills Daily Journal combines the popular method of guided journaling with dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills-building to offer an incredibly accessible program for transforming your negative thoughts and intense emotions. With only ten minutes of daily written reflection, you’ll strengthen the four core DBT skills—mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness—that will help soothe your negative thoughts and emotions, improve resilience, and increase your overall well-being. You’ll also develop lifelong skills for better emotion control—and you’ll do it in an easy, accessible, and accountable way.

If you’re looking for a go-to, take-anywhere resource for getting your negative thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in check, you’ve found it. The DBT Skills Daily Journal is an exciting new approach that will have you writing your way out of struggle and into a more meaningful and fulfilling life.
