The author, Julian Melgosa, is a widely-known communicator, with decades of success as a teacher and a writer, who provides his thoughtful and deep analysis of adversities and behavioral choices for developing a positive and healthy mind.
This unique work gives us the tools to face challenges that we often do not know how to face. This 331-page volume is a manual that offers an extensive listing of problematic situations that everyone may face sometime during life.
To address these situations, the book includes valuable self-help techniques, professional psychotherapeutic strategies, and a large number of natural treatments. This guide of holistic mental health provides counsel and practical remedies, about principles for better living, self-centered and interpersonal problems, resilience, as well as major therapeutic techniques.
