I would highly recommend this book for a young person to use, as it is a great way to introduce the CBT framework and mindfulness in a non clinical manner. I particularly like the way it is broken into digestible chapters where the reader is able to select an area of focus, which then gives them the theory as well as short relatable and practical activities, with clear and concise instructions. It is also a great tool for youth workers of all levels, from those who are new into the field of mental health, to those who want to have access to easy to use resources and or ideas for sessions.

The approach is based on the principles of cognitive behaviour therapy and mindfulness. It is easy to read and includes lots of inspiring and fun exercises to help you on your journey to developing health habits. Although written for young people it is a must read for people of any age.

The perfect book for your school's mental health library for young people! One of the best self-help books for young people I have come across. This interactive, practical guide that helps people take control and gain better self-awareness, emotional literacy and tools to enhance their mental health is invaluable.
