Facing the Storm
Using CBT, Mindfulness and Acceptance to Build Resilience When Your World's Falling Apart
About this book
Facing the Storm is a self-care book which aims to assist readers in dealing with life-changing events and recovering in the face of adversity.
Drawing on evidence-based techniques from CBT and mindfulness and acceptance approaches, and a lifetime of experience with people confronting their own death, this book will show readers ways to cope better in the face of life's storms. It guides them to make sense of what is happening, to make better choices in the face of disaster, build their ability to recover from the impact of events, and prioritise the things that matter most to them. This updated edition reflects recent research and new techniques while also addressing the changing world we have been living in – especially the impact of the Covid19 pandemic.
The book will be of interest to people struggling with the big challenges of life, and for the psychology, health and social care professionals who help them.
