<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>The <strong>Mind and Emotions</strong> workbook helps readers resolve anxiety, depression, anger, and emotional disorders through a skills-based, universal treatment created by Matthew McKay, coauthor of Thoughts and Feelings and The Dialectical Behavior Therapy Skills Workbook. This program is rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and allows readers to move past the seven unhealthy coping styles that cause emotional suffering.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>We all have our own ways of handling stressful situations without letting emotions get the best of us, but some ways of coping work better than others. Short-term fixes that help us avoid or numb our emotions may temporarily alleviate sadness and anger, but can also end up causing anxiety, depression, chronic anger, and even physical health problems. If you struggle with overwhelming emotions and feel trapped by unhealthy patterns, this workbook is your ticket out.</p><i>Mind and Emotions </i>is a revolutionary universal treatment program for all emotional disorders that helps you discover which of the seven problematic coping styles is keeping you trapped in a cycle of emotional pain. Instead of working on difficulties like anxiety, anger, shame, and depression one by one, you'll treat the root of all your emotional suffering at once. Drawing on evidence-based skills from cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy, this workbook offers all the techniques you need to manage unwelcome feelings in effective and productive ways. Learn and practice the most effective coping skills: <ul><li>Clarifying and acting on your core values</li><li>Mindfulness and acceptance</li><li>Detaching from negative thoughts</li><li>Self-soothing and relaxation exercises</li><li>Assertiveness and interpersonal skills</li><li>Gradually facing your strong emotions</li></ul><p><i>This book has been awarded The Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies Self-Help Seal of Merit -- an award bestowed on outstanding self-help books that are consistent with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) principles and that incorporate scientifically tested strategies for overcoming mental health difficulties. </i></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"<em>Mind and Emotions</em> draws thoughtfully on a transdiagnostic perspective and a triad of evidence-based treatments for emotional problems. Beyond its self-help value to the public, this unique workbook constitutes a rich resource for practitioners seeking to enhance their therapeutic effectiveness."<br> --Thomas F. Cash, PhD, Professor Emeritus of Psychology at Old Dominion University and author of <em>The Body Image Workbook </em></p><br><br><p>"At last!

Unfortunately, anxiety and depression go together, and most of us who struggle in dealing with one emotion have difficulties in managing others as well. This new and impressive workbook by McKay, Fanning, and Zurita Ona provides a welcome alternative to having to buy and follow separate books for each specific emotional difficulty you may encounter in life. <em>Mind and Emotions</em> will guide you through an easy-to-follow set of skills designed to put you, rather than your emotions, back in charge of your life."<br> --Robert D. Zettle, PhD, professor of psychology at Wichita State University in Wichita, KS, and author of <em>ACT for Depression</em></p><br><br><p>"Mind and Emotions offers a clear and practical entry into the complex and often confusing world of emotions and emotional pain.

This book is practical, well-written, and packed with helpful advice." <br> --Martin M. Antony, PhD, ABPP, professor of psychology at Ryerson University in Toronto and author of <em>The Shyness and Social Anxiety Workbook </em></p><br><br><p>"This book is beautifully written in simple, clear, and precise language. In very short, highly informative chapters, the best-known techniques for leaning to manage painful emotions are described and then a range of concrete strategies for practicing these strategies is presented. This book can not only be used as part of a self-help program, but also as part of an emotion management skills training group or as an adjunct to individual counseling for emotion management difficulties."<br> --Kirk Strosahl, PhD, author of <em>Real Behavior Change in Primary Care</em></p><br><br><p>"This concisely written book offers well-developed, practical tools for readers intent on attending to their emotional needs.
