## Resource

We all endure hardships of one sort or another. If we let them, they will turn into downward spirals that leave us feeling helpless and alone. What if you could take all of that mess that is yours and turn it from a curse into a blessing? In my book, The Healing Journey: Overcoming Adversity on the Path to the Good Life, I explain using mentalligent psychotherapy (MPT) as a healing journey where your therapist is your guide in seamlessly weaving together mindfulness, positive psychology, and cognitive behavioral strategies to help you out of your stuck-ness and begin soaring.
