Rational Thinking, Emotional FreedomMastering Life's Challenges with REBT Emotions shape the way we think, act, and experience the world. At times, they empower us to grow - and at other times, they hold us back. Like many, I too have faced moments when frustration, guilt, or rejection felt overwhelming. It was during those moments that I discovered the power of Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT) - a simple yet profound approach that helps us take charge of our thoughts and, in turn, our emotional well-being. I wrote this book to share the clarity and freedom REBT can bring to everyday life. You don't need to be a therapist or a psychology expert to apply these principles. Whether it's handling stress at work, dealing with relationships, overcoming guilt, or building emotional resilience, REBT offers practical tools that anyone can learn and use. In the chapters that follow, you will explore: How emotions and thoughts interactHow irrational beliefs keep us stuck - and how to challenge themPractical models like GABCDE that help transform emotional reactionsReal-life examples, reflection prompts, and techniques you can apply immediatelyMy hope is that this book serves as a companion on your journey toward emotional strength and inner peace. "This book is more than a guide-it's an invitation to think clearly, live fully, and embrace emotional freedom."- Bhushan Kulkarni Remember, while REBT is a powerful tool for personal growth, it does not replace professional medical or psychological treatment. This book would not have been possible without the invaluable support of Prajit Self-Help Group, Pune. Disclaimer: This book is intended for educational purposes only and is not a substitute for medical treatment. REBT should be practiced under the guidance of a qualified expert.
