Personal Development 101

Would you like some practical tips on how to feel happier, bounce back from adversity, think more positively, improve your assertive communication and manage your stress instead of carrying it? If so, this book is for you! Psychotherapist and Emotional Wellness Consultant, Judy Belmont, MS, LPC, offers a manual full of practical, hands on tips, that anyone can use to create a more positive and happier life. Consider this workbook as your blueprint for mental wellness. All too often people know what they need to do to feel better, but they do not know how to get there! This workbook gives practical exercises and visualization techniques to take action right away! Through use of experiential activities, exercises, self-help worksheets, and educational handouts, you can experience change-not just think or talk about it. Unfortunately, life skills training is rarely a part of formal education, but it is these basic life skills that are vital to success in any realm of life. In this book, you will learn how to develop the resilience and healthy thinking skills you need to manage your anger, heal from loss, forgive even if they are not sorry, love yourself no matter how many times you failed or slipped backwards, and reclaim your personal sense of power and effectiveness. This workbook is in no means a substitute for therapy, but it can serve as a therapeutic companion to boost your &quote;mental fitness&quote; in enhancing your life wellness skills. This book was originally a self-published therapeutic companion to the popular &quote;Tips and Tools For The Therapeutic Toolbox&quote; series published by mental health publisher, PESI, offering mental health professionals worksheets, handouts, activities and other resources to use in working with individual and group clients. Consider this book a &quote;go to&quote; manual for your personal development and growth.
