A Deeper Conversation

Book Cover & Preview Text
Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired? I absolutely “love it” when people come to therapy and tell me they are sick and tired of being sick and tired. I get very excited. If you are sick and tired of being sick and tired you are in the best place for change. Unfortunately, it probably doesn’t feel like it is the best place for you to be. When you are sick and tired of being sick and tired, you are usually exhausted, at your wits end, feeling hopeless, angry and often having physical ailments. You may not be able to sleep, eat or work. Some people say they are sick and tired of being sick and tired but really they are not, not yet. The up side to being sick and tired of being sick and tired is that you are usually willing to try something different, something you haven’t tried before or something that is out of your comfort zone. The down side is that you can get stuck there. It is not a nice place to get stuck and you may turn to alcohol, drugs, shopping, gambling, relationships addiction and busyness to cope, not realizing that you are diverting and distracting your pain, whether it is emotional or physical.

About the Book
If you are sick and tired of being sick and tired, then you are in the best place for change. Unfortunately, it also means you’re probably feeling hopeless, angry, and possibly even physically sick. You may not be able to sleep, eat, and/or work. The upside is that you’re likely ready to move out of your comfort zone. The downside is that you may get stuck-especially if you turn to alcohol, drugs, shopping, gambling, or an unhealthy relationship. Katherine G. Bridge draws upon her extensive experience as a group therapist to help you get on track in this guide to healing. Learn how to: • open yourself up to new worlds of possibility; • track your thoughts, ideas, and observations to find intimacy; • slow down the spinning of daily life; and • identify what’s holding you back. You’ll also learn about six major ego traps (and how to avoid them), ways to stay present in the moment, and how to break free from unhealthy family patterns. Filled with fun activities, examples, diagrams, and insights, the lessons you learn will help you be happy in the present instead of in the future.
