It’s good, basic, helpful advice. Probably every reader will find several things that make a difference. I was impressed how often her discussions on each kind of life challenge involved some aspect of mindfulness. She talks very practically about mindfulness during real-time living, and has an impressively simple, basic way of describing what it is. I’m gonna go ahead and just quote her on mindfulness about thoughts: Condition: New.

If you want to feel like you have a therapist sitting across from you, empowering you with how to be your best self, this book is for you!' Nicole LePera, New York Times bestselling author of How to Do the Work

KEEP UPDATED

Mindfulness - achieving a state of mind that prays attention to the present moment (a gym workout for the mind). While initially a raw and intimidating task, confronting fears is crucial in helping us to understand our traumas and problems as opposed to neglecting and letting them fester. I really wanted to love this after following Dr Julie on social media for quite some time now, but I just didn’t. It was quite bland and I felt often like she only scratched the surface. I was expecting more science, more depth. But it just felt a bit like there were too many things covered in not enough depth.

The book is divided into 8 sections and four or five chapters in each section and provides very detailed and relevant information on various coping methods on how to deal with stress, anxiety, grief, criticism, etc. Within each chapter there are charts and tables to complete and then a Q&A section to fill in - something for me to do after absorbing this book. Metacognition - The act of thinking about our thoughts through awareness, being intentional and present, in addition to creating pauses between emotion and action. Social media is often blamed for young people’s mental health problems, especially self-esteem and anxiety …So therapy is often about accepting thoughts as they arrive and then making choices about what you do with them. If I spend time with these thoughts, is that going to help me move forward where I want to go? Or if I spend time with these, what impact is that having that’s different? It’s allowing your brain to come up with whatever it comes up with and then choosing what to do next.

Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before? by Julie Smith - Waterstones

The author suggests we identify our values and who we want to be and then analyze our thoughts and behaviors to see if we are going in the right direction. She also talks about identifying our emotions in more detail; instead of saying we are sad, are we really bored, anxious, frustrated? She suggests journaling and writing down our negative emotions to try to make some sense of how and why they appeared which will help us to understand them. One of the most important things to me was the idea of not stopping bad feelings but letting them flow through you while trying to identify what they are and where they came from. This is amazing advice as so many times we are told to stop negative feelings which can be impossible.

Format bukunya agak lucu, karena tiap babnya pendek, tapi di akhir bab tetap dikasih ringkasan 😂 Ya nggak apa-apa sih, malah bikin isi bukunya makin nempel di kepala. Buat yang nggak terbiasa baca non-fiksi, dan tertarik dengan tema yang dibawa buku ini, gue kasih lampu hijau. Gas. You can start from this one. Julie Smith bisa menggabungkan cerita, tips, informasi, dengan science sampai sepanjang baca gue jadi berkali-kali "oalah, nyambung toh ini dengan itu..." That’s partly why the book felt such a timely thing to do. I can’t give everybody one-to-one therapy, but I can do something. I can share some basic education as widely as I can. Give your mind the one thing it needs this winter with the book everyone has been talking about, from clinical psychologist and TikTok sensation Dr Julie Smith
