The Positive Power of Negative Emotions by Tim Lomas

How to understand and harness negative feelings and behaviours so that you can lead a healthier, more fulfilling life.
This book is far more than an argument for tolerating bad feelingsDrawing on philosophy, the arts, psychology and personal experience, Tim Lomas shows how sadness, anxiety, anger and the rest can be a path to growth. His surprisingly uplifting message is that learning to harness our negative emotions will expand our capacity for joy -- Oliver Burkeman, author of The Antidote
A truly inspirational new book * Daily Mail *
Although we might not want to face our feelings of fear, sadness, and loneliness, these are the body's warning lights. In this useful and enjoyable book, Tim Lomas shows how our feelings give us the clues for how to make a better life. Learn to listen to your inner voice of wisdom -- Professor Stephen Joseph, author of Authentic: How to be yourself and why it matters
