About this product

Product Information

THE MILLION COPY BESTSELLER Do you ever feel worried, miserable or unfulfilled - yet put on a happy face and pretend everything's fine? You are not alone. Stress, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem are all around. Research suggests that many of us get caught in a psychological trap, a vicious circle in which the more we strive for happiness, the more it eludes us. Fortunately, there is a way to escape from the 'Happiness Trap', a ground-breaking new approach based on mindfulness skills. Using the six principles of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Russ Harris can help you to: * Reduce stress and worry * Rise above fear, doubt and insecurity * Handle painful thoughts and feelings more effectively * Break self-defeating habits * Improve performance and find fulfilment in your work * Build more satisfying relationships * Create a richer and more meaningful life

  • Enjoyable counselling book.

    Acceptance and Commitment Therapy explained in an interesting and common sense structure. This talking therapy works and helps in understanding many of the main stream psychological huministic therapies promoted by the BACP. Excellent book, great author and a good read.

  • A new way to look at anxiety and stress.

    I loved this book. It challenges the view that we should seek to be happy every single day. It is an easy read whilst maintaining valuable information on ways to think differently about how to improve our thinking and reduce our stress levels.

  • Amazing and fresh view on life!

    Russ Harris has put together an original, compelling and inspirational book here. You will either love it or hate it, but I thought it was unique, relevant and progressive. Its not dissimilar to Steve Peters book but I give this one a huge edge! Enjoy...

  • Unfortunately the book smells like it ha...

    Unfortunately the book smells like it has been in a home where someone smokes and then sprayed with perfume to try and cover it. That doesn’t affect the readability of it.
