I found the worksheets extremely useful - they have helped me to identify and change negative thoughts and patterns of behaviour. I am feeling more positive and in control. Highly recommended.
I particularly enjoyed learning about how the brain works – the part on neuroplasticity was fascinating – and the fact the journal was peppered with uplifting inspirational quotes.
