Tiny Injuries. How Everyday Troubles Trigger Our Health Problems

Mental health plays an equally important role in a person's life as physical health. For a long time, it was believed that the cause of mental disorders lies in severe traumas, such as violence, parental neglect, military actions, etc. However,... recently there has been a growing number of studies showing that small everyday traumas, such as an unpleasant family gathering or a minor car accident, have a no less devastating effect on the psyche. It is these small traumas that this book is about. IT IS SUITABLE FOR ANYONE WHO FEELS THAT THEY ARE «HITTING THEIR HEAD AGAINST THE WALL OF LIFE». The author of the book, psychologist Meg Arroll, does not limit herself to theory and offers readers exercises that will help identify small traumas, overcome them, and develop psychological immunity to larger traumas. No matter how many traumas a person has, they can always overcome the mental, social, and physical obstacles to personal growth and development. Arroll asserts that even if a person has many small traumas, her techniques will improve every aspect of their life.
