Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

The practice of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is made even more accessible in this fun, easy-to-understand, and illustrated companion to The Happiness Trap

There's this idea going around that we're always supposed to be happy--and it's making us miserable. The good news is, if you can learn to let go of that impossible expectation, your life will be a whole lot happier . Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a simple, self-administered therapy that uses mindfulness to enable you to do just that.

In this follow-up to his bestselling The Happiness Trap , Russ Harris shows how you, like millions of other people, can use ACT to start living a life that's far richer, fuller, and more meaningful. You will learn how ACT can help you:

* Reduce stress and worry
* Handle painful feelings and thoughts more effectively
* Break self-defeating habits
* Overcome insecurity and self-doubt
* Recognize and treasure the whole range of emotions that make up a satisfying life
