This is a completely updated edition of the 1983 classic that introduced a powerful method for gaining freedom from self-defeating behaviors and beliefs. Rick Carson, creator of the renowned Gremlin-Taming(tm) Method, has revised the book to include fresh interactive activities, real-life vignettes we can all identify with, and new loathsome gremlins ripe for taming. Carson blends his laid-back style, Taoist wisdom, the Zen Theory of Change, and sound psychology in an easy-to-understand, unique, and practical system for banishing the nemesis within. Among the things you will learn are: Techniques for getting a sliver of light between the natural you and the monster of your mind. The extraordinary power of simply noticing and playing with options. Six keys to maintaining emotional balance amid upheaval. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

Personally, I didn't care for the format.
The author suggests that as you're reading, your "gremlin" will try to convince you that the book doesn't make sense or isn't achievable. He advises you to open your mind and then provides prompts and exercises to work through it.
I understand his point, but it didn't resonate with me at all. Additionally, envisioning this "gremlin" as a tangible being felt odd and off-putting. I just couldn't connect.
So yeah, it was an interesting short read but not my cup of tea. ( )
