Description
Book SynopsisTwo former GPs provide a refreshing and liberating medical view of the useful purposes of our unpleasant emotions to move life on with healthy adjustments (E-motion = energy in motion). They show through true stories how anxiety, anger, guilty self-questioning and depressive emptiness, when viewed in a totally different light, are not negative, but are the vital evidence we need to name our hidden personal values. Harnessing emotion into values-based action plans renews inner strength, prevents illness and transforms setbacks, disappointments and hurts into paths to come through stronger.
