<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Drawing on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness practices, this guide offers breakthrough insights and simple techniques for developing deep-seated, long-lasting confidence</b> <p/> Too many of us miss out on opportunities in life because we lack self-confidence. Whether it's public speaking, taking on a leadership role, or asking someone for a date, there are situations in which we just don't feel equipped to handle the challenges we face. <p/> Russ Harris offers a surprising solution to low self-confidence, shyness, and insecurity: Rather than trying to "get over" our fears, he says, the secret is to form a new and wiser relationship with them. Paradoxically, it's only when we stop struggling against our fearfulness that we begin to find lasting freedom from it. <p/> Drawing on the techniques of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), a cutting-edge form of cognitive-behavioral therapy, <i>The Confidence Gap</i> explains how to: <p/> - Free yourself from common misconceptions about what confidence is and how to build it <br> - Transform your relationship with fear and anxiety <br> - Clarify your core values and use them as your inspiration and motivation <br> - Use mindfulness to effectively handle negative thoughts and feelings. <p/> "This book could save you years of psychological struggle, yank you out of negative emotional patterns, and help propel you to a much happier, more productive life." <b>--Martha Beck, author and Oprah Winfrey's life coach</b><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"This book could save you years of psychological struggle, yank you out of negative emotional patterns, and help propel you to a much happier, more productive life."--Martha Beck, author of <i>Finding Your Own North Star</i> <p/>"An exciting alternative to the usual approach of so many self-help books. Harris explains how we can work with ourselves as we are, rather than aggressively trying to alter ourselves. I'm impressed by the simple and effective methods of ACT."--David Richo, PhD, author of<i> How to Be an Adult in Relationships</i> <p/> "One of the most hopeful (and helpful) messages we can take away from this book is this: we can learn to do the things that matter, even when our minds say it's not possible."--<i>Spirituality & Health </i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Dr. Russ Harris is a physician, therapist, and speaker specializing in stress management.
