This book isn’t designed to persuade you that one kind of therapy is better than another. Instead, you will learn about the different types of therapy, and you will learn some tools to help you choose the kind of therapy that will be the most beneficial to you. Therapy can be a powerful tool for overcoming traumas and coping with mental health issues. However, not all therapeutic approaches are the same. It is critical that you make an informed decision before undergoing therapy. This book is an invaluable guide as you make this important decision.

Do you tend to overanalyze everything? Do you have trouble getting to sleep? Do you worry about the future? Then pay attention. You might seem a bit confused about what could be wrong about thinking too much. Is it not good? Getting lost in your thoughts is relatively harmless, but that is not what overthinking is. Overthinking is when your mind gets overloaded by a couple of negative thoughts that seem to be on an endless loop that keeps playing faster and faster.

Are you easily overstimulated by the world around you? If you answered "yes", then you might be a highly sensitive person (HSP). In The Highly Sensitive Person’s Growth Guide, you will discover how to identify this trait in yourself and take advantage of it in your everyday life. During my tenure as therapist, I studied this unique trait in many of my clients. Having witnessed their personal struggles, I decide to write this book as a way to harness and control this gift to improve the life of individuals who do not have dominion over their sensitivities.

Most of the things we think would help are either not in our control or simply not realistic. But there is one thing we can do to achieve the qualities we seek, and it can be done invisibly and often: meditation.

Onward tackles the problem of educator stress, and provides a practical framework for taking the burnout out of teaching. Stress is part of the job, but when 70 percent of teachers quit within their first five years because the stress is making them physically and mentally ill, things have gone too far. Unsurprisingly, these effects are highest in difficult-to-fill positions such as math, science, and foreign languages, and in urban areas and secondary classrooms - places where we need our teachers to be especially motivated and engaged.

Based on their workshops and counseling experience, psychologists Jane B. Burka and Lenora M. Yuen offer a probing, sensitive, and at times humorous look at a problem that affects everyone: students and scientists, secretaries and executives, homemakers and salespeople. Procrastination identifies the reasons we put off tasks - fears of failure, success, control, separation, and attachment - and their roots in our childhood and adult experiences.

Onward tackles the problem of educator stress, and provides a practical framework for taking the burnout out of teaching. Stress is part of the job, but when 70 percent of teachers quit within their first five years because the stress is making them physically and mentally ill, things have gone too far. Unsurprisingly, these effects are highest in difficult-to-fill positions such as math, science, and foreign languages, and in urban areas and secondary classrooms - places where we need our teachers to be especially motivated and engaged.

Based on their workshops and counseling experience, psychologists Jane B. Burka and Lenora M. Yuen offer a probing, sensitive, and at times humorous look at a problem that affects everyone: students and scientists, secretaries and executives, homemakers and salespeople. Procrastination identifies the reasons we put off tasks - fears of failure, success, control, separation, and attachment - and their roots in our childhood and adult experiences.

Despite our best-laid plans, life can often be difficult, disappointing, and stressful. Consequently, when things don’t go right, we are often left in a state of emotional chaos, dealing with feelings like anger, anxiety, frustration, and doubt, which can cloud our perspective and negatively affect the way we live our lives. But in this inspiring book, Phillip Moffitt shows us that we need not be at the mercy of our emotions. By cultivating a responsive mind rather than a reactive one, we can achieve a state of emotional clarity.
