These brief and accessible guides address a range of common problems with key points to help resolve them based in cognitive behavioural (CBT) approaches.
They have proved popular in recent distribution in Manchester. They do not talk about mental health as such and will be useful for a far wider range of people than those who have an identified mental health condition.
We stock nine titles in a series called “Living Life to the Full; Little Books”. A reader may find that more than one title together is useful, depending on the problems they are experiencing.
They may also find it useful to use the Living Life to the Full website, a free interactive CBT based programme to help overcome stress, worry and low mood. www.livinglifetothefull.com
