But there are effective techniques that can help you manage these emotions before they take over your life.

In The Emotionally Sensitive Person, a psychologist provides proven-effective cognitive behavioral and mindfulness techniques to help people like you who struggle with intense emotions. In the book, you will learn powerful tools for staying in the present moment, identifying emotional triggers, developing a strong and healthy identity, and experiencing overwhelming or uncomfortable emotions without becoming upset.

You'll also learn how to be more relaxed in your relationships, how your personal values can affect your thoughts and actions, and how to recognise negative thought patterns before you start acting on them. Of you are tired of feeling hurt or helpless when it comes to your feelings, this book will provide you with evidence-based strategies for taking charge of your emotions-whether it's at home, at work, or in your relationships.
