Overview


Apply practical strategies from the latest expert research to change the way you think and react to feelings of shame.

Do you (or does someone you know) have problems with shame? Perhaps you're suffering in silence because of an experience or feeling you have about yourself, or perhaps it’s affecting your daily life and relationships. Shame is a common emotion, and is healthy at times, but when it keeps us from activities and people we once enjoyed, it's a powerfully damaging and painful feeling.

Using the research of experts in the field of emotional health, this book outlines a basic understanding of shame and offers healthy ways to process and change our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to better deal with it. These strategies are based on Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), a widely used method of examining our own thoughts to challenge and change irrational beliefs.

In this book, you will

Understand the essence of shame and the difference between shame, guilt, humiliation, and embarrassment.
Discover the anatomy of shame and break it into its basic elements
Uncover your own sources of shame and how culture, childhood, and current relationships can all reinforce it
Discover how you experience shame through your own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors
Reclaim your life from shame by making conscious choices in your thinking, feeling, and acting.

    Highly recommended!

    They called this a "quick guide", but I thought they did an excellent job of delving deep into the issues of shame. For years, I have been overcome with shame but I didn't even know it. I constantly had this idea that I wasn't good enough in almost every aspect of my life, and I would detach myself emotionally from situations and from people. But now I feel like I have the tools to free myself from the shame and start giving myself the respect I have always deserved. I honestly think reading this has changed my life.
