The workbook is divided into four sections:
Mindfulness skills help you to focus on the present moment and accept your thoughts and feelings without judgment. Interpersonal effectiveness skills help you to communicate your needs and wants in a clear and assertive way. Emotion regulation skills help you to manage your emotions in a healthy way.
