Veteran therapist James May counted among his many clients CEOs and welfare mothers, football players and poets. What they had in common was the desire to change their lives in some way. He helped them free themselves from the emotions and habits that distressed them, and find ways of changing that really work. This book offers us the same opportunity in our own lives.
This book helps us to free the positive power of our emotions so the emotions work with us, not against us. It gives practical techniques that help people to change their own lives without having to feel excessively guilty or endure the pain of being preached at. The book also helps people to understand these techniques so that they can use them creatively, and addresses specific problems that many struggle with: sex, raising children, the media, depression, rage, and anxiety.
The authors' approach is deeply spiritual; it combines an historical Christian understanding of human nature with modern research in human development and psychoanalysis, all in a way that is accessible to the average reader. It is also suitable for all denominations.
