Stop Overreacting: Effective Strategies for Calming Your Emotions

Autor PhD Siegel, Judith P.
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 iun 2010

When you are criticized or rejected, do you have a tendency to lash out or withdraw entirely? Both types of knee-jerk reactions can have lasting and unintended consequences, affecting our friendships, careers, families, and romantic relationships. The truth is, overreacting hurts us as much as it hurts the people around us. You may see overreacting as an unchangeable part of your personality, but in reality, this tendency, like any other, can be unlearned.

"Stop Overreacting" helps you identify your emotional triggers, discover a new way of processing impulsive thoughts and feelings, and understand how your emotions can undermine your ability to think rationally in moments of crisis and stress. You'll learn how to neutralize overwhelming emotions and choose healthy responses instead of flying off the handle. Ready to make a change for the better? It's time to stop overreacting and start feeling collected and in control.

Recenzii

"Finally, a practical book that gets at what the real triggers are for overreacting in everyday situations. A terrific integration of varied ideas about how to understand present-day overreactions in light of past experiences, especially past relationship experiences. This book goes way beyond most guides to help readers think rationally and mindfully."
--Alan S. Gurman, Ph.D., emeritus professor of psychiatry at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health

"Judith Siegel's "Stop Overreacting" captures the essential emotional problems that cause people distress. Even better, she clearly delineates very useful and accessible strategies for resisting emotional overload and destructive responses to emotional situations. "Stop Overreacting" is a valuable guidebook for navigating the basic struggles of our emotional world."
--Beth Jacobs, Ph.D., clinical psychologist, adjunct faculty member of Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine, and author of "Writing for Emotional Balance"

"Judith Siegel has given us a book with the force of revelation. Using exciting new research findings on brain physiology, she connects the emotional self to the body in which it lives in a manner that is both readable and wonderfully engaging. Stop Overreacting is a real tour de force; a book that is impossible to put down."
--Maggie Scarf, author of "Intimate Partners: Patterns in Love and Marriage" and "Secrets, Lies, Betrayals: The Body/Mind Connection"
