 - Immediately lifts my moodThe exercises are worth a try! I have bipolar and until this book did not realize how many negative assumptions I was making about what others thought and felt about me. I've found it incredibly helpful, and led me to see a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist. The right meds ARE essential, using a thearpist is great, and yet I come back to this book to do exercises from time to time for an immediate lift in my mood after a difficult situation has occurred. This book could help most anyone, not just those suffering mental health conditions. -bipolar II Rating: - Great Self Help BookThe book takes a no nonsense approach in teaching what causes negative emotions and how to look at a problem and figuring out the emotions that are causing the thoughts and feelings. It's a wonderful book to use along with therapy. Rating: - Very helpful for people who read into thingsHelps you realize that maybe you are "over" thinking After you write down your rational thoughts then you feel much better Rating: - Mind Over Mood workbookVery good book. Easy to read for all age groups. Gives the reader tools and exercises to actually use. Will definitely recommend. Rating: - A wonderful tool to enjoy life!My friend, who is a doctor in psychology, suggested I read this book as I was dealing with anger and anxiety. I would just get so stressed out about little things (computer not working, paperwork to file, life stuff!). I have read half of it so far, and already my life (and my husband's life!) has improved so much! The worksheets really help uncover the reason behind the emotion (mood) and from there it is easier to change. I borrowed the book from the library and am planning on buying it now as I will most likely refer back to it over and over. If your emotions tend to take over, I highly suggest you read this book!
