The Emotion Trap

Why Negative Feelings Hold You Back and How Small Changes Can Set You Free

Siri Helle , Trans. AA Prime
In this accessible guide psychologist Siri Halle explains how issues such as procrastination, anxiety, low self-esteem and overthinking lead to decisions that, while comforting at the time, create a cycle of self-destruction. She then offers tools to help replace this emotion-led behaviour with those based on long-term validation, discussing topics including how to build motivation and reduce stress.

***The International Bestseller***

Do you procrastinate instead of doing the things you really need to?
Are you inclined to miss a workout session because curling up on the sofa is more appealing?
Do you let your fears stand in the way of your dreams?

This is what can happen when your emotions are controlling your behaviour. Our thoughts, feelings and behaviour are all connected and if we start by changing our behaviour, a change in thoughts and feelings will follow.

In this practical and engaging guide, Swedish psychologist Siri Helle breaks down core principles of psychology into accessible, relatable tips to help you break free from emotional traps and reclaim control of your life.
