9.99 €
Rejection is felt almost physically: shame, pain, a tightness in the chest, suffocation, a fall into an abyss. It arises when we are devalued, ignored, or denied a request. It becomes crystal clear inside: "You are not needed"—and also: "You can't do this to me!"
This book will help if:
- you have experienced rejection;
- you painfully experience rejection, criticism, and praise;
- you are stuck in old resentment, anger, and shame;
- you depend on others' approval;
- you cut ties with people and regret it.
Olga Prokhorova is a process therapist and writer, and she herself is sensitive to rejection. Personal experience informs her work with clients, and new insights about people inform her self-improvement, and this interaction forms the basis of this book.
Inside you will find:
- stories of clients who regained their support;
- The author's story about her experience overcoming rejection;
- Examples from a famous Russian novel that reflects all the strategies for dealing with rejection;
- Data from modern research;
- A simple algorithm for recovering from rejection;
- The "Voice of Nikolai Drozdov" technique, the "Creating Positive Mirrors" exercises, "Catch Yourself in the Midst of Success," and many others;
- A strategy for helping loved ones, adults and children;
- Recommendations for using AI for self-help.
