Basic Ways to Get Over Anxiety, Depression, Anger - Paperback

by Adewumi E. Adedoyin (Author)

Take heart if you've ever suffered from depression. Mindfulness, a simple but effective technique for paying attention to your most challenging emotions and life situations, can help you finally escape the cycle of persistent sadness. Four uniquely trained professionals explain why our customary attempts to "think" our way out of a poor mood or just "snap out of it" send us further into the downward spiral in The Basic Way through Depression. They teach how to avoid the mental patterns that lead to despair, such as rumination and self-blame, using profound lessons derived from both Eastern contemplative traditions and cognitive therapy, so you may confront life's obstacles with more resilience.
