New book empowers readers with practical tools and strategies for resilience, mindfulness and personal growth
AHMEDABAD, India, Jan. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- In an age where mental health is a growing concern, a groundbreaking resource has emerged to empower individuals on their journey to emotional wellbeing. Written by seasoned counseling psychologist Avanti Desai, "" (published by Partridge India) offers a refreshing approach to self-help by blending cognitive-behavioral techniques with mindfulness practices.
This workbook is designed as a personal "therapist-in-a-book," providing a safe and supportive space to work through one's thoughts, feelings, and struggles with its easy to follow exercises and actionable strategies. Here, readers are guided on a therapeutic journey, allowing them to identify and challenge negative thought patterns, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and cultivate a more positive mindset. The journaling prompts, actionable steps, and reflection exercises help turn readers into active participants in their own growth. As Desai points out: the goal is not just to understand the concepts, but to implement them.
"I wanted to create a resource for people who couldn't or wouldn't see a therapist," explains the author, who brings years of professional expertise and a passion for mental health to this project. "There are many reasons why someone would not seek professional help such as cost, lack of access, or fear of stigma. I wanted to make sure that everyone, regardless of their circumstances, has access to tools and information that can help them improve their mental health. I believe that everyone deserves to feel good, and I hope that this book can have a positive impact on as many people as possible."
