5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent book, not to be missed! 14 Jun 2012
Format:Paperback
This is an excellent book. Having long been a little sceptical about the efficacy of self help manuals, this has transformed my thinking, and I can't recommend it highly enough. Subtitled 'How To Bounce Back From Bad Times At Work', its application extends beyond the workplace - I used it to help my daughter, a young undergraduate return to university and resume her studies following a lengthy period of absence through a debilitating illness. Ann really does understand what causes people to become stuck, lack energy and lose confidence. Writing with warmth and purpose, she offers simple effective exercises together with a flexible approach. I'm absolutely sure that this helped to turn around my daughter, enabling her to pick herself up and move forward with a renewed confidence, and energy and enthusiasm restored.

Read it and you'll feel better about yourself. Use it and you'll be in a stronger position to help others.

5.0 out of 5 stars Practical and easy to read 18 Dec 2010
Format:Paperback
As someone offering training on workplace wellbeing, I was delighted to come across this small, easy to read and highly practical book. Having our life at work go pear shaped is a common experience, particularly in the current context of economic squeezes and constant `efficiency' drives. The many short story examples remind you you're not alone, and the text offers exercises to help you find your bearings, understand what's happening and move on. If you're not enjoying your time at work, have suffered recent setbacks or experienced bullying, this is a book that can help you.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Positive Bounce 5 Oct 2010
Format:Paperback
Recover Your Balance is a powerful book - simple to read yet never simplistic. It provides a range of practical tools that are key to re-establishing your identity and self-esteem to enable you to progress positively from seemingly dark places. Ann's style is succinct and highly readable and she uses activities, case studies and personal insights to help you to find your own way forwards. Although aimed specifically at bouncing back from bad times at work, the tools and guidance that Ann has created can also be adapted and used successfully in other spheres of your life!
