'Carefully and creatively presents techniques that anyone can use
to undermine struggle, avoidance, and loss of the moment. Harris
systematically explores how we get into the "happiness trap" and
then shines a powerful beacon showing us another way forward' -
Steven Hayes, PhD, author of Get Out of Your Mind and Into Your
Life
'A practical antidote to the self-help industry's unhelpful
obsession with trying to change yourself' - Sainsbury's
Magazine
'Eminently practical and readable. This book reveals that
when calibrating one's life according to acceptance and valued
action, happiness is a pleasant sideshow in the larger carnival of
an engaged and purposeful existence' - Zindel Segal, PhD, author of
The Mindful Way through Depression
'An exciting alternative to the usual approach of so many self-help
books. Harris explains how we can work with ourselves as we are,
rather than aggressively trying to alter ourselves. I'm impressed
by the simple and effective methods of ACT' - David Richo, PhD,
author of The Five Things We Cannot Change
