Counselor and therapist Dr. Beth Blevins Cuj�'s original approach to self-help takes a giant-step beyond most self-help books. Become the Person You Were Meant to Be answers the question, "Why am I this way?" but goes on to answer the question, "How do I change?" Providing a framework for self-monitoring, simple tools for change, and four keys steps to guide change, Cuje's Choice-Cube Method equips readers finally to answer both questions. According to Cuj�, normal feelings of defensiveness and self-protection can be dangerous when individuals become stuck in those postures. She points out that readers can use her method to check bodily stress, negative emotions, painful and distorted thoughts, and misdirected desires. Then once aware of those reactions, they can learn to take responsibility for them and use her Choice-Cube tools and four key steps to make necessary changes. Developed out of years of experience as a therapist, university adjunct faculty member, and workshop presenter, this down-to-earth application of current brain research, trauma research, and attachment theory can help readers consistently resolve problems in the present, rework past problems, and program their future. The author believes this method can benefit therapists as well as secular readers and believers. "Real-life examples lend credibility and authenticity to the program...Individuals seeking to better themselves might find that the author's insightfulness and the Choice-Cube Method work well for them." - ForeWord Clarion Reviews
