I love this book. I learned so much about how to effectively handle my emotions even during the worst of times. The thing I enjoyed the most about this read is how informative it is on a practical and scientific level, the author really built up a strong case on a solid foundation and it makes it really easy to thoroughly understand the subject instead of just simply going over the basics like many similar books in the genre do. I have a lot of respect for Dr. Goodman because of the way that he shared his own experiences, it makes the book very personal in a way and for me that made more of an emotional impact on me, knowing that the author is writing from his experience with a similar mindset instead of just reiterating common knowledge.Another thing I really liked were the action steps: these definitely added an extra unique twist that makes the book very original compared to most stress management related books. How to Survive an Emotion Landslide is definitely one of the best self-help books that I have ever came across.
