Embrace Your Emotions teaches us valuable self-development tools that help expand our emotional vocabulary, improve our emotion regulation skills, and learn how to manage stressful moments in our lives while bolstering resilience. Leaning into the wisdom of our feelings, uncovering why they exist (even the negative ones), and why it's crucial we don't push them away or stuff them down is essential to living your most valued and meaningful life. Jennifer Lindley's book is full of practical and effective exercises for even the busiest of people - taking just a few minutes a day to respond to the prompts and activities contained in this book is going to yield significant, positive outcomes and will change the way you see yourself. This book is a game changer and I highly recommend it for anyone looking to improve their mental wellness, strengthen connections with important others, and reach coveted goals.

How do we bring healing to a world in crisis? A vital first step is to begin to feel and heal our own emotions. Jennifer King Lindley and Sarah Smith offer a powerful new tool for doing so. Embrace Your Emotions is a skillful, joyful, and compassionate guide to overcoming emotional blockages and reclaiming the power of feeling fully. Carl Jung once counseled the world to "make the unconscious conscious." This guided journal is a modern field guide for this essential work.
