The Shyness Workbook: 30 Days To Dealing Effectively With Shyness

A hands-on workbook that therapists can use to help shy individuals learn to effectively deal with their shyness. The author provides nonthreatening guidelines and research-based strategies that will help individuals work with their shyness instead of against it. The book contains a series of 30 separate daily units that include: Assessing Your Shyness, Being Successfully Shy, Controlling Unfair Social Comparisons, and Taking Advantage of Rejection. Each daily unit contains four elements: What You Need to Know--core information about a particular shyness issue; Your Turn--a self-directed activity to promote self-examination; Voices--quotes from other shy individuals who share their feelings and experiences; Reflections--a self-reflection and expressive writing exercise.
