This book was recommended to me by my therapist, and I must say, i thought i knew how to regulate my emotions, but listening to this audiobook has given me a new set of skills that have really helped to make that task easier.

Informative and Inspiring!
Russ Harris presents useful tools to help you deal with life's challenges. He doesn't gloss over how this can be difficult but in a humourous way helps you rise to the challenge. I loved listening to this audiobook so much I bought the hard copy too!

It’s normal to have bad thoughts and feelings
A very interesting approach to life, much more realistic and achievable compared to what so many other self help books try to sell
