Been through a bad patch lately and was recommended this book to read. What a breath of fresh air and just what I needed. Have been doing all the exercises and it makes the experience all more worthwhile. I would recomend this book to anyone who wants to move forward in their live. You dont need to struggle any more.

This is an excellent book. Very easy to read and has effective practical exercises which can be easily carried out. The exercises have an immediate and profound effect on your life. I have used it both personally and professionally (as a counsellor) with great results. I am recommending this book to everyone!

Excellant book! Very easy to read and understand and a very thorough breakdown of ACT in practice. Highy recommend this book.

The information in this book is easy to read, understand, and put into practice. The exercises listed throughout the book are relevant for people experiencing difficulties with making goals to those experiencing low mood to those experiencing anxiety symptoms. The notion of stop the struggle and begin to accept and take committed action is presented in a way that is practical, simple, and refreshing. The idea is to accept yourself as you are and be in the moment rather than spend life trying to change yourself.
