About Everyday Mindfulness For OCD: Tips, Tricks, And

Product Description “The most empowering OCD book I have ever read.” —Reid Wilson, PhD, author of Stopping the Noise in Your HeadDon’t just survive—thrive. In Everyday Mindfulness for OCD, two experts in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) offer a blend of mindfulness, humor, and self-compassion to help you stop dwelling on what’s wrong and start enhancing what’s right—leading to a more joyful life. If you’ve been diagnosed with OCD, you already understand how your obsessive thoughts, compulsive behavior, and need for rituals can interfere with everyday life. Maybe you’ve already undergone therapy or are in the midst of working with a therapist. It’s important for you to know that life doesn’t end with an OCD diagnosis. In fact, it’s possible to not only live with the disorder, but also live joyfully. This practical and accessible guide will show you how. In Everyday Mindfulness for OCD, you’ll discover how you can stay one step ahead of your OCD. You’ll learn about the world of mindfulness, and how living in the present moment non-judgmentally is so important when you have OCD. You’ll also explore the concept of self-compassion—what it is, what it isn’t, how to use it, and why people with OCD benefit from it. Finally, you’ll discover daily games, tips, and tricks for outsmarting your OCD, meditations and mindfulness exercises, and much, much more. Living with OCD is challenging—but it doesn’t have to define you. If you’re tired of focusing on how “hard” living with OCD is and are looking for fun ways to make the most of your unique self, this book will be a breath of fresh air. Review “This book is a breath of fresh air for anyone who suffers from obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Instead of just telling you what you should or shouldn’t do, the book helps you learn how to relate to yourself with more mindfulness and compassion. Rather than trying to fix or change yourself, the practices actually help you befriend who you are already, allowing you to heal through the power of presence and kindness.” —Kristin Neff, PhD, author of Self-Compassion “Wow! This is the most empowering OCD book I have ever read. This mental disorder is a clever and manipulative challenger that requires you to bring your A-game. If you are in it to win it, Everyday Mindfulness for OCD is your playbook.” —Reid Wilson, PhD, author of Stopping the Noise in Your Head “Too often those with OCD are told ‘don’t worry,’ or ‘sit with your anxiety,’ as if it were so easy. Hershfield and Nicely are among the top OCD therapists in the field, in terms of both treating it and mastering their own OCD. In this book, their infectious exuberance will provide you with the how-to steps you need to master your OCD and rediscover joy.” — Jonathan Grayson, PhD, director at The Grayson LA Treatment Center for Anxiety & OCD “I was impressed and moved by this book. The authors expertly help the reader to take mindfulness off the meditation cushion and out of the therapy office—and into their lives. Mindfulness, acceptance, and self-compassion can powerfully help us to free ourselves from the stranglehold that anxiety can exert. This is a highly recommended work that I will be using with my clients.” —Dennis Tirch, PhD, coauthor of The ACT Practitioner’s Guide to the Science of Compassion, and founder of The Center for Compassion Focused Therapy “ Everyday Mindfulness for OCD can be a lifeline for those with OCD who have found exposure and response prevention (ERP) ‘dreadfully hard,’ as the authors put it—or worse. By adding mindfulness and self-compassion to the standard therapy, their thoughtful and straightforward strategies and tools—and even games—promise to ease the suffering of countless people with OCD.” —Sharon Begley, author of Can’t Just Stop “Good books offer pearls of wisdom. Great books string them together in meaningful ways. This book does even more by skillfully weaving such strands into a lifeline that readers can reach for again and again. W
