Emotional Healing

How to Put Yourself Back Together Again

Description

In this instructive and uplifting narrative, Dr. Barry explores how to recover from loss, trauma, grief, and loneliness by helping readers identify their emotions and providing the steps to emotionally heal yourself.

When we experience trauma, loss or grief the pain can feel as if it will last forever. We begin to wonder if our old selves—the ones who felt hope and happiness and joy—are lost to us. And our emotions can lead us into damaging behaviours that compound our problems. Dr Harry Barry acknowledges there is no magic wand that will take our pain away completely, but he uses his clinical experience, combined with cognitive behavioural therapy, to show that emotional healing is always possible. 

You can put yourself back together with the simple exercises and straightforward advice that have helped countless others. Healing is the process of restoring the healthy mind and body of someone in distress, and Dr. Barry offers a holistic approach to the whole person.

Emotional Healing is a practical, compassionate companion for anyone who feels that their emotional wounds are preventing them from fully embracing life. Learn to feel like yourself again.

Reviews

"An intensely powerful book filled with clear tools to help us survive and cope with some of the most profound moments in our lives. Moving and thoughtful."

Bruce Daisley, author of the Sunday Times No. 1 bestseller The Joy of Work

"Another fantastic book from Dr Barry, this time focused on emo- tional healing. The book deals with understanding and tackling negative emotions including dealing with very painful and difficult topics such as the death of a partner or child. A personal touch is brought throughout the book and it is both a very interesting and enriching read."

Professor Catherine Harmer, Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience, University of Oxford
