What does it mean to live a good life? Well-being can be a difficult concept to define, but if it's lacking in your life, the absence is undeniable. Perhaps it feels like disillusionment with everyday routines or frustration with basic challenges. Expectations-those of others and your own-can be overwhelming. Maybe it feels like you're simply trying to survive. Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner Lee LaMee has created a comprehensive process for identifying patterns holding you back and increasing awareness for improved well-being. In The Theory & Practice of Well-Being, Lee examines the intersection of mental, physical, and spiritual health, exploring the components necessary for being-and staying-balanced, healthy, and empowered. With a pragmatic approach, Lee provides a framework for understanding dangerous self-deception, the differences between happiness and enduring contentment, and the five fundamental concepts to master for a foundation you can build upon. With real examples, thought-provoking exercises, and helpful tools, The Theory & Practice of Well-Being is a must-read for anyone searching for enlightenment, growth, and long-lasting wellness.
