After 16 years of listening to therapy clients, and many more years dealing with trauma, tragedy, chronic illness, and other adventures, Dr. Jo, a licensed clinical psychologist and registered yoga teacher, has condensed her training and experience into these chapters. Each one offers a different tool for increasing your resilience, ease, and confidence in facing anything that life brings your way, along with ideas for practicing it in everyday life. Peppered with personal examples and a playful, warm style, this accessible owner's manual for the mind offers practical advice, relief, and loving encouragement for anyone struggling with emotional or physical pain who has become frustrated with traditional approaches and is ready to try something different.
