Publisher's Synopsis
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
