How to Tame Emotions. Self-Control Techniques from a Professional Psychologist

Ruslan Zhukovets is a psychotherapist who has been practicing for over fifteen years. Working with patients, he has found that each emotion is experienced by the body in its own way. Joy literally makes the chest feel 'expanded' (the diaphragm... opens), from offense the 'chest tightens' (breathing problems), from shame one wants to 'burn' (a burning sensation in the body), and from fear 'the legs give way' (leg diseases). And if an emotion remains unexpressed, it gets 'stuck' in the body and later transforms into illnesses, wearing down the organism.

Ruslan has developed his method for working with emotions, which is detailed in this book. You will analyze each emotion separately and learn how to 'tame' it. Furthermore, you will discover why joy is becoming less prevalent in our lives and understand how to fully experience your positive emotions while, conversely, getting rid of negative feelings. Importantly, you will learn to prevent severe illnesses of the body.
