Don't Believe Everything You Feel: The New Science of Emotional Health
By Robert L. Leahy
In his groundbreaking book, Don't Believe Everything You Feel: The New Science of Emotional Health, Robert L. Leahy reveals the revolutionary new science behind our emotions and shows us how we can use this knowledge to improve our mental health and well-being.
The Science of Emotions
For centuries, we've been taught that our emotions are simply reactions to our circumstances. But Leahy argues that this is only half the story. Our emotions are also influenced by our thoughts, beliefs, and expectations. In other words, our emotions are not simply a product of our environment; they are also a product of our minds.
This new understanding of emotions has profound implications for our mental health. If our emotions are not simply reactions to our circumstances, then we can change our emotions by changing our thoughts, beliefs, and expectations. This is the key to emotional health.

Leahy is a leading expert in cognitive therapy, a type of psychotherapy that helps people to change their negative thoughts, beliefs, and expectations. He has spent decades researching and practicing cognitive therapy, and he has seen firsthand the transformative power of this approach.
