Razia Bhatti-Ali: Acceptance Commitment Therapy and Islam, Gebunden

Klappentext

This pioneering workbook developed by expert Muslim Psychologists specialising in chronic pain uses a cultural / religious adaptation of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), an evidence-based clinical intervention for supporting Muslims living with chronic pain.

Through step-by-step practical guides and exercises incorporating spirituality and contemplation, the reader is guided towards using practical tools and strategies to release the struggle of fighting against pain and instead cultivate the psychological flexibility to live better with chronic pain. Drawing on Islmic teachings from the Qur'ân and Sunnah, it nurtures spirituality and encourages readers to embrace acceptance. It inspires a commitment to living in accordance with one's core values, empowering readers to find meaning and purpose even in the face of challenges.

This workbook can be used both as a companion to the book titled Integrating Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with Islamic Psychotherapy (Routledge, 2024) for clinicians in collaboration with their clients and as a standalone workbook for Muslims living with chronic pain.
