Book DescriptionMost of us on this site lead very stressful lives, largely from dealing with the strong emotions of a PWBPD. We can all benefit from learning ways to help understand and relieve that stress, and this book is a very good tool for that purpose.
Mindsight is a potent skill that is the basis for both emotional and social intelligence. It is an integration of brain science and psychotherapy, and it explains techniques of mindful thinking that can actually improve our brain's hardwired programming.
