Cognitive Behavioral Therapy: 21 Day Journey To Freedom From Anxiety, Depression And Panic Attacks With Simple And Effective Techniques Made For Eve

The purpose of this book is to show how Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) can help to overcome unrealistic thoughts about the situations we encounter, to think about those situations in a positive, realistic way and thus change our feelings and our reactions, or behaviors.

This book is intended to assist the individual to find simple methods that can lead to healthy thinking and behavior that relieves us from the overwhelming effects of situations and the unhealthy reactions that we experience which become detrimental to daily life. With this pathway as a guide we can help ourselves overcome:

• Anxiety
• Depression
• Panic Attacks

We will begin the journey by examining:

• How our thoughts influence our feelings which in turn affect the way we behave.
• We will learn how to identify negative or irrational thinking and become equipped to change those unsound ways of thought before they influence extreme emotions which can cause us to act in abnormal and unhealthy ways.
• We will develop coping skills and engage in self-help activities which will enable us to overcome the difficult situations that we encounter in life.
• Though previously these situations might have cause us to spiral into a morass of self- doubt and anxiety, we will now be able to look at such situations with confidence and the knowledge that we can overcome them.
• The various methods that CBT employs can help stop loss of motivation, the tendency toward inactivity and the preoccupation with depressive thoughts which often accompany psychological distresses with practical ways that improve our daily lives.

In addition, we will come to realize that changing irrational beliefs about ourselves and our expectations can also change the way we feel and behave about the world and give us a more positive outlook for the future. In effect, we can form new relationships with not only those around us, but more importantly with ourselves. These relationships, which were once affected by the painful episodes that resulted from our anxiety, depression and panic attacks, can progress into stronger connections and lead to a healthy, happy family life, deeper friendships, and improved job performance, not to mention, help us solve major life problems.
The primary purpose of CBT is to focus on the present and to understand how we think and feel influences how we behave in the moment. While, the central point of CBT is not to delve deeply into past traumas, learning how we think and why we think the way we do can have the ongoing benefit of evolving into a greater understanding of our base motivation. We can learn self-awareness and self-analysis leading us toward being in control of our own lives and our own happiness.
