This is a unique course that can be used for all aspects of society, including counselors and therapists. This is a fun interactive course on self-discovery that takes the student through the lives of people who have had difficulty overcoming negative, self-destructive thinking errors. It covers topics such as self-deception, anger avoidance, emotional needs, relationships, and avoiding decay.
This workbook is for all people who may be experiencing problems associated with self-defeating thoughts and behaviors. It is a self-development workbook designed to teach cognitive skills that will empower participants to live happier, more productive lives.
This course was designed for mostly non-criminals, but it may be used for offenders (Offender Responsibility is the equivalent for offenders). It was intended to be used by therapists and others who need a strong cognitive component to their counseling. Often, the answers to the future can be found in the past.
The subconscious mind remembers things in three basic ways: repetition, trauma, and emotion. The goal of this workbook, and any cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) effort, is to intervene at the deepest level and challenge faulty thinking errors. Clients become cognizant of what is blocking their progress and can find their true potential. This workbook will lead people on a journey of self discovery. It will demonstrate that they are most often many times more talented and capable than they think they are.
Your beginnings are mostly luck—it is not your fault.
We can block the wrong and not pass it on.
Whether we live in growth or decay is our choice.
