Inhaltsangabe

You are not broken. You are carrying feelings you were never taught how to finish.

If you have spent years telling people you are fine and knowing that you are not, this book gives you ten specific, learnable techniques for finding what you have been carrying and letting it finally move.

Revised and expanded edition: nearly 220 pages, with five new chapters, a complete practice journal and a 28-day programme.

There is no shortage of advice about emotions. Be present. Let it go. Feel your feelings. If none of that ever told you how, this is the book that does.

Most people who suppress their emotions are not doing it on purpose. They learned it young, because in the room they grew up in, it was the safest thing to be. It worked. It kept them safe. And then it kept running long after the danger had gone, quietly costing them their energy, their sleep, and their closest relationships.

What is inside

• Ten techniques, numbered and explained step by step — five writing techniques and five stillness techniques, each in its own chapter
• A 60-second version of every technique, for the days you have almost nothing to give
• Honest troubleshooting — what to do when a practice does nothing, or brings up more than you expected
• A five-stage method for working with a single emotion, which you can use inside any of the ten techniques
• A 28-day programme that tells you exactly what to do each day if you would rather not choose
• A complete practice journal — worksheets, prompt banks organised by emotion, and a 90-day tracker
• Plain guidance on when self-help is not enough, and how to find real help

The ten techniques

Stream of Consciousness Journaling · Reflective Journaling · Gratitude Journaling · Affirmation Journaling · Writing Letters to Yourself · Breath and Anchor Meditation · Body Scan Meditation · Loving-Kindness Meditation · Visualisation Meditation · Mindfulness Meditation

Written for people who have never done any inner work, and who are not sure they believe it will help. There is no jargon here, and nothing that assumes you already know how to feel something difficult.

What this book is not. It is not therapy and it is not a substitute for medical or psychological care. If what you are carrying is bigger than a journal and a quiet room, this book says so plainly and tells you where to go instead.

Start with three minutes. That is a real practice. That is where everyone starts.

First published in 2023. This revised edition has been fully re-edited, restructured, and expanded to nearly 220 pages.
