Feedback on Overcoming Jealousy - A Practical Guide "I bought the book to help with my irrational feelings of jealousy. I found that it gave helpful, practical ways of dealing with jealous behaviour. I am applying the strategies suggested in the book to my situation and am working on changing my thoughts and behaviour accordingly. The balancing thoughts have been especially helpful. My relationship is improving." - Sheila, UK "This book unfolded step by step how my reactions don't work and gave me tools and things that I have written to reread that calm my irrational worries. I need to rewrite in on an 3x5 card and carry it! I was struggling with jealousy problems that kept arising, such as not being able to deal with triggers - now I can notice them for what they are. My partner also is jealous too. Talking about triggers to him calmly also helps him. I never told him about this book. Perhaps I should fess up! The book enlightened me to ways to stop and understand that my past is my past. The person in front of me isn't going to hurt me. Nothing that they have done deserves my questioning. I deserve a better life without worries. I still have problems but they are less and I am calmer. Overall I think this book is very informative and enlightening. It's a wonderful tool to free one self of shame and gives a helping hand to create healthy relationships." - Dee, United States "Very easy to follow and already I am pausing more before reacting to a situation." - Chris, UK "I bought the book to help with jealousy in my relationship and self esteem issues. It gives good practical advice, not airy fairy! It provides practical steps and things to do. It helps me to keep the emotional feelings out of the way and to see clearly what I have to do." - Sue, UK "The book has helped me to find alternative behaviours to deal with my extreme jealousy. I found it easy to use and understand." - Charlie, United States "Low self esteem due to recent events led me to start behaving in a way I didn't like. I wanted to 'nip it in the bud' before it escalated. I liked the parts where you fill in the spaces and have your own affirmation at the end. I liked the use of language, very simple, easy to read and very motivating. It read as though you were saying it which helped as well." - Kate, UK "Past relationship issues were keeping me from having a healthy present relationship. The book provided a practical guide to some quick and easy steps to be more aware of how I think in social situations and how to take steps to control jealousy. Having assignments in steps and then putting them into a project plan was very helpful. The project plan is great to fall back on. I also like the fact that the book doesn't overlook the fact that a partner could be contributing to the jealousy issue and encourages you to try to talk and negotiate each other's needs thinking about what is reasonable and unreasonable." - Brad "I found the book very helpful, well written, good exercises. It helped me to address the real reasons for my feelings and then helped me to identify practical ways to avoid these feelings." - Laura, UK |
Cognitive Techniques and Jealousy
The book incorporates the latest CBT techniques for addressing negative or distorted thinking patterns, explaining in clear and simple terms how these can be used to work through jealousy issues and come up with practical and individualised strategies relevant to your situation. 'CBT' or Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is a set of techniques based on the common sense recognition that our thoughts and how we interpret events and situations influence our feelings and how we act.
This is highly relevant to jealousy where you may see something happening in a situation, or see someone acting in a certain way and then draw conclusions about it or start to believe things which lead you to feel jealous, angry, hurt or humiliated.
This Guide shows step-by-step how you can address your thoughts, feelings and actions in these situations to help you gain control and think and act in a constructive way manner.
Jealousy and Self Esteem
Sometimes a low sense of self worth can be an underlying factor for jealousy or your self esteem can be damaged as jealous feelings lead you to doubt yourself and feel ashamed of the ways you are acting.
The Guide therefore includes a useful section on issues relating to insecurity and self esteem with two simple assignments to help you build your self worth and create positive goals.
Note: David Bonham-Carter has also written additional guides on how to deal with low self esteem and assertiveness. If you feel that you may be interested in those additional guides as well, then you can find further information about a discounted pack of all three ebooks at the link below:
