Welcome to your own "timeout chair". The name may sound unpleasant at first, but the idea is that you take time to sit and think about what you have said or done and analyse a better solution. This book has been designed using proven tools for mental health by leading professionals. The activities in this book include principles taught by Leah Kuypers, M.A. Ed, OTR/l in her book the zones of regulation, the ABC model was created by Dr. Albert Ellis, and mindfulness activities encouraged by countless mental health professionals. The author claims no professional knowledge in any of these, however, has first-hand experience in their use and benefits. The author hopes that this book becomes a useful tool to anyone who uses it.
