“In Feeling Great, Dr. David Burns reveals that our negative moods do not result from what’s wrong with us, but rather– what’s right with us! And when you listen and suddenly “hear” what your negative thoughts and feelings are trying to tell you, suddenly you won’t need then anymore, and recovery will be just a stone’s throw away.”
The exercises (including more than 50 tools) outlined in the book Feeling Great, by psychiatrist David Burns, can help you work through both short-term and long-term challenges on your own in a fast and efficient manner. If you get “stuck” anywhere, then you can always bring it in to therapy to work on or talk to a friend or partner!
Here is an example of some of the work you can do straight out of the book: a daily mood worksheet that he offers on his website.
