Elemental by Paul Reed

"Elemental" is a practical self-help book aimed at anyone who has ever known anxiety, stress or depression - and that includes most of us these days. We can all benefit from better mental health and there is a great deal we can achieve through our own efforts. Drawing on his own experiences of mental illness, and many years of study, Paul Reed's easy-to-follow guide is based on a unique blend of Western and Oriental traditions of psychotherapy and healing. The five elements - Earth, Water, Fire, Wind and Void - provide the framework for the book. As Paul himself explains: 'I'm not trying to be any sort of guru, but after nearly twenty years of fighting mental illness, I now consider myself to be an "expert by experience". I believe that passing on my experiences and knowledge could help other people. It's not hopeless and you have the power within yourself to recover. I'm living proof!'.

'His new book is an innovative approach to combating stress which draws on the Eastern philosophies he studied to cope with his illness'
