Very Good/N/A. green & black titles spine; cover illust. by Yvonne Chambers; "loneliness is a problem which most of us face some of the time - and which some of us face, or feel we are facing, most of the time. With people increasingly living and working alone, loneliness is likely to affect more and more of us over the next few years. , Yet it does not only concern those who are physically on their own - it is just as easy to feel emotionally alone. People in stable, relationships, surrounded by family and friends, active in large workplaces, may still feel extremely isolated. You may feel lonely when you think you are not properly understood, loved or considered, or when your self-esteem is low. You may lose people you love and care about, or your circumstances may suddenly change, in ways over which you seem to have little control. You may even feel lonely if you are afraid of these things happening. In this book, Xandria Williams explains that loneliness is a state of mind, and as such can be changed. The tools she offers here have been developed and refined over twenty years of counselling: not only innovative and practical ways of dealing with physical loneliness but, more importantly, an under-standing of emotional loneliness and a host of ways of making appropriate, effective changes. This isa positive, expert guide for all those who want to enrich their sense of identity and enjoy their lives to the full."; Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Quantity Available: 1.
