Reseñas de la Crítica

"If you're tired of standard psychological parlance and still frustrated with your quality of life, this book can be a godsend." (Martha Beck, columnist for O Magazine)

"Trying to 'change' negative thoughts through cognitive gymnastics is like trying to win a war single-handedly. Why waste a life trying the impossible? In Get Out of Your Mind and Into Your Life: The New Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, advocate Dr. Steven Hayes escorts the mildly depressed, angry, and anxiety prone through a new approach to handling suffering - universal human suffering caused by language's illusions. Rather than fighting off bad thoughts and feelings with internal pep talks, Hayes beautifully explains how to embrace those pessimistic and foreboding mental voices (much like welcoming home one's cranky, play-worn children), 'defuse' them with respectful attention, and commit to leading a purposeful life that includes their occasional ranting."

Good for whole family

This is one of the best books we've ever listened to as a family. We age from 8 to 53, and we all loved it. In fact, our dad is listening to it again for I think the thirteenth time. It's just plain ole good, clean fun with mystery, mayhem and magic.

Get this book

It will help you see what is happening with you, and what to do. I am grateful for it.

For me the material is difficult to absorb.

I didn't find the techniques useful. Maybe I should seek a therapist to understand ACT.
