Everyday Mindfulness for OCD: Tips, Tricks and Skills for Living Joyfully
By Jon Hershfield and Shala Nicely
Written by two clinicians who are honest about having their own personal struggles with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Everyday Mindfulness for OCD offers a unique perspective on strategies for staying one step ahead of OCD symptoms. As the title implies, the authors present tips not for just living despite OCD, but for living joyfully with OCD.
This book is not an introductory manual for OCD, instead filling a need for those who are further along in their treatment. It is tailored towards those who already have a solid understanding of OCD and exposure and response prevention, but are looking for more ideas to increase or maintain progress long-term. It may be helpful as a supplement to therapy, or as a secondary book for those who have already completed a self help treatment workbook.
Everyday Mindfulness for OCD is divided into three sections: mindfulness and self compassion, daily tools and games to promote joyful living, and long-term mastery over OCD. The strategies presented feel very practical and concrete. The authors’ suggestions regarding self-compassion seem especially useful, as self-compassion skills can be difficult to develop, yet essential to living a joyful life. There are also a variety of exposure games included, which offer a great way to mix up your ERP practice.
