Emotional Healing is a Brilliant book. A powerful study of how to deal with the emotions we often overlook, suppress, or Don't understand. The text is full of case studies, examples of how triggers can present, techniques for self-direction as well as suggestions for when other options should be included.The ABC, self-rating, turtle and Other techniques are easy to implement, and the breakdown of different levels of stress, anxiety, anger, shame, depression, and a herd of other emotions, trauma, and grief were insightful. This book does an excellent job of of allowing you to look within as well as see concerning behaviors in others.My concerns about recommending this book to others is the constant reference to self-harm. If you do not know where someone is on the spectrum of mental health, I think this book could be a trigger and a questionable ideal. I took copious notes and truly enjoyed the breadth of information provided. It's a book that educates, alerts, and requires a willing participant.
