Based on the best research in Positive Psychology and Emotional Intelligence, Emotional Mastery explains the primary causes of depression, stress and anxiety.

It also documents Bruce Elkin's 30 years experience helping himself and others prevent and overcome depression, manage moods, create what matters most, and live happier, healthier, more zestful, and simpler lives.

Elkin warns that people do not understand the cause of stress and anxiety. Or the cause of depression. So they do not know how to manage their moods or create what truly matters to them.

They mistakenly blame what happens to them-problems, circumstances, adversity -for their negative feelings and lack of effective action.

But, Elkin points out, what happens to us is not what makes us feel bad.

He explains how we create feelings such as fear, depression, and anxiety by the way we explain what happens to us .

He also shows how, by developing the practical skills of emotional mastery, we can change the explanations and stories we tell ourselves- and significantly change our feelings, actions, and results and improve our emotional health and our emotional intelligence.

With rare honesty, Elkin opens up about his struggle overcoming depression and fighting anxiety thirty years ago. He describes how he slid into the depths of despair through his own faulty self-talk and victim-focused story-telling.

He also describes how he pulled himself up from that abyss of darkness that causes so many to despair and give up by using the techiniques he now teaches.

He tells how he changed his thinking and changed his life - improving his emotional health and well being -and continues to do so daily. He outlines how skills such as AQ, The ABC's of Emotional Mastery , explanatory style , and creating-based, purpose driven life design - increased his emotional intelligence and changed his thinking, actions and results.

These are the tools he teaches to clients so they, too, can increase their emotional intelligence, improve their emotional health, manage their moods, prevent unnecessary fear, prevent and overcome depression and anxiety, and create what matters most to them.

Finally, as well as showing how to change negative emotions and actions into positive, successful ones , Elkin shows how to create positive emotions -for their own sake, and for the sake of emotional stability, health, and well being.

"Emotional intelligence and emotional mastery are not just problem solving tools," Elkin says. "They are the tools we need to shift from pessimism to realistic optimism and from anxiety to useful caution. They are the life design tools we need to create the kind and quality of lives, work, and relationships we long for. "

"Plus," he adds, "feeling positive is lot better than feeling negative. Also, it's a lot easier to produce results when you're up than when you're down."
