Description
The book presents practical exercises that will help the reader develop the skill of mindfulness, effectively navigate interpersonal relationships, regulate their emotions, and tolerate stress. The authors build on the foundations of dialectical-behavioral therapy (DBT), whose effectiveness has been proven in treating a wide range of mental disorders and issues, particularly those characterized by an inability to manage one's emotions. DBT has proven effective in managing stress without losing control and engaging in destructive behavior. In order to use these techniques, one must build skills in four key areas – stress tolerance, mindfulness, emotion regulation, and effectiveness in interpersonal relationships. The exercises to acquire these skills are conducted step by step, and their application in real life has long-term effects. The book is intended for professionals who will use it to provide support in therapy, as well as for laypeople who will appreciate clear and practical advice for better managing their emotions.
