Book description
There is no simple set of instructions that can guarantee sanity, but
if you want to overcome emotional difficulties and become happier,
psychotherapist Philippa Perry argues that there are four cornerstones
to sanity you can influence to bring about change. By developing your
self-observation skills, examining how you relate to others, breaking
out of your comfort zone and exploring new ways of defining yourself,
she suggests ways of finding emotional equilibrium.
Through case studies, practical exercises and stories of individual
experience, this insightful and inspirational book reaches out to anyone
in need of a little emotional support from time to time. Philippa Perry
is a psychotherapist who, in an attempt to demystify psychotherapy,
wrote the graphic novel, Couch Fiction. She has written for The
Guardian, the Observer, Time Out and Healthy Living magazine and has a
column in Psychologies magazine. She lives in London and Sussex with her
husband, the artist Grayson Perry and enjoys gardening, cooking,
parties, walking, tweeting (@philippa_perry) and watching telly.
