CBT recognizes that most negative feelings arise from confused, irrational thoughts. By learning to identify and change these thoughts and by replacing destructive and limiting behaviors with new, more constructive ones, readers can start steering their lives in the direction they want to go. Changes to this new edition include revisions and updates to the core CBT chapters as well as a new chapter on how to use mindfulness to bring focus and intention to the process of change.

 Rating:  - Reminds Me Of!Great book on showing you how to use those thoughts and feelings to create a life you desire. The book stresses positive thoughts which bring on those positive emotions. This does remind me of the law of attraction and my favorite workbook, Living The Secret Everyday: My Secret Workbook that also stresses the positive and gives you many, many recipes on how to follow this premise.

You only read certain chapters that pertain to your specific problem (it tells you in the beginning which ones for which problems) and follow the instructions. My problem is panic disorder, so I looked up and know which chapters to read and complete. It takes a lot of work on your part, doing exercises, following through on things, I am only done with the first ... Read More Rating:  - Rather Superficial in Key AreasLots of excellent ideas and some good techniques. But therein lies the problem: the techniques, especially on relaxation, should be defined, described and explained for use by stressed-out people in more detail. Also, I believe that Beck's original insight about thoughts controlling feelings is not as airtight as he and the many people following in his wake believe. Do your realize how hard it is to even identify specifically and accurately your thoughts on almost any subject or in ...

This book has helped in alot of ways so far and im only halfway thru. I like the journals and charts. It makes it a handson activity that i can get into instead of just a book.
