Like a Man: A Guide to Men s Emotional Well-being, by counsellor and men s columnist Padraig O Morain, combines insights from Western and Eastern psychology to help men sharpen their emotional skills. Emotional wellness is not only about change it is also about acceptance. This book draws on Western insights which promote change and on Eastern insights which emphasise the value acceptance and effort. The author's column That's Men for You appears weekly in The Irish Times and has built a loyal readership made up of men and of the women in their lives. Topics include building better relationships at home and at work; using mindfulness and other techniques to handle anxiety, stress and panic attacks; battling the blues; the hidden beliefs that drive us; dealing with workplace bullies and other difficult people; getting through marriage breakup; and taking care of your physical health.
