The gentle and powerful way to turn feelings of distress into helpful action In this remarkable book, Dr Claire Hayes takes a good look at our thoughts and how they can affect us. Rather than trying to suppress or ignore negative thoughts, she believes we should welcome and embrace them, and recognise them for what they are: just thoughts. Using cognitive behavioural therapy and her unique techniques such as the 'Coping Triangle' and 'Coping Sentences', Dr Hayes shows us how to take control of our mental health and proactively manage our reactions to overcome life's challenges. This is a book both for anyone who suffers from stress, anxiety or depression, and for their friends and family.
