A fascinating exploration into the psychology of guilt – and why we need it to thrive by renowned psychologist Professor Chris Moore.
When was the last time you felt guilty? Chances are, you don’t even want to think about it; most of us would rather not. But avoiding guilt is a mistake we have to stop making if we want to improve our lives, our relationships, and our mental health.
The Power of Guilt is a deep dive into one of our most excruciating – and underutilised – emotions. Moore takes the reader on an eye-opening journey through guilt and shows us that, by embracing it, we may improve our lives, our relationships and our mental health.
Readers will learn:
So no matter who you are or what you have done, you can take comfort in the fact that our ability to feel guilt is a gift, not a burden.
