Unfortunately some habits-specifically our thinking patterns-can be unhealthy. In Shrink-Proof Your Life, seasoned psychotherapist Peter Allman shares advice that will help us break away from negative habits or suffocating situations and illuminate the path toward an expanding life filled with more love, purpose, and joy. Allman, who has been a psychotherapist for more than twenty years, offers strategies to create stronger relationships, resolve inner and outer conflicts, and find the inner-strength to tackle obstacles. While teaching ways to work through normal feelings of sadness, annoyance, and grief, Allman also includes conversations with counseling clients that show practical approaches, helpful metaphors, and proven methods that train the mind to achieve better mental health and resiliency through life's greatest challenges.
