Synopsis Roger Baker's ground-breaking book, based on
the extensive work of
his research team, explains how emotional processing works
and outlines problematic styles of emotional processing and
their effects on quality of life. It presents a new way of
understanding emotions and new insights into handling
emotional pressures, and is illustrated throughout with
examples from patients in psychological therapy and from
everyday life. The book is divided into 4. Part 1 - The
Secret Life of Emotions: introduces the theme of the book
and shows how emotional and rational lives are equally
valid. Part 2 - Dissolving Distress: looks at our second
immune system, emotional processing, which helps us to
absorb and break-down emotional hurts and strains. Part 3 -
Healing through Feeling: covers the expression of emotions
for good health and well-being. Part 4 - How to Sabotage
Emotional Processing: provides a manual of bad practice.
