Why do women feel so much guilt? We're guilty when we don't do what we think we should, when others get upset with us, even when we indulge in moments of pleasure. In Guilt Free, psychiatrist Dr. Jennifer Reid invites us to let go of all this guilt so we can start making choices based on what we want and need rather than what we think we should be doing. Some guilt is good, even necessary, but women are uniquely socialized to hold themselves to unrealistic expectations. Guilt drives us to take on more than we should...

When we focus only on our own trauma, we cannot see how other types of trauma – ancestral, cultural, social, and spiritual – contribute to our present pain and suffering. But when we step back to consider how different parts of our identities are connected, we have a much more complete and coherent picture of our pain. Using an integrative approach, the authors will not only help you understand the roots of your trauma, but offer you the practical tools to end the cycle of harm for good.

Too often, we assume that our trauma is an individual wound, and that we can only heal it through individual work. In truth, our trauma is shaped by so much more than our own experience—we’re impacted by ancestral trauma from previous generations as well as collective trauma from the world around us. Beloved teachers Thomas Hübl and Richard Schwartz bring together their wisdom to chart a new path forward that addresses all of these sources of pain, so we can heal ourselves and also our communities and world.

Self-as-context is one of the most important of the six core processes of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), yet it is also one of the least understood.

So how can you gain a deeper understanding of self-as-context as a behavior and learn practical interventions for empowering clients with this essential capacity?
