Therapeutic Journey

This is a new book. Condition: Brand New.

Plt;bPgt;From the Plt;iPgt;Sunday TimesPlt;/iPgt; bestselling author of Plt;iPgt;The School of LifePlt;/iPgt;Plt;/bPgt;

A healthy mind knows how to hope, hanging on tenaciously to the reasons to keep going.Plt;BRPgt;Plt;BRPgt;A healthy mind resists unfair comparisons, not allowing othersP#8217; successes to throw it off course.Plt;BRPgt;Plt;BRPgt;A healthy mind avoids catastrophic imaginings, distinguishing worries of what Plt;iPgt;couldPlt;/iPgt; happen from what likely Plt;iPgt;willPlt;/iPgt;.Plt;BRPgt;Plt;BRPgt;Just as there is no such thing as a human being who will never become physically ill, there is no human who will go their whole life without becoming mentally unwell. But recognising ourselves when weP#8217;re well can do a lot to help us identify what can go awry. Written with his signature kindness and empathy, this book is Alain de BottonP#8217;s practical guide to caring for our mental health P#8211; from the acts of self-care in which we find respite to the help which psychotherapy can bring.Plt;BRPgt;Plt;BRPgt;Mental illness is as common, and as unshameful, as its bodily counterpart. We should be no more reluctant to seek help than we are if we develop a chest infection or sore knee - and we are no less worthy of love and sympathy in those moments. This book is a reminder of that.
