About this listen

Learn how to manage your most difficult feelings and build the emotional strength you need to create the life of your dreams.

​Sadness, shame, helplessness, anger, embarrassment, disappointment, frustration, and vulnerability. In 30 years as a practicing psychologist, Dr. Joan Rosenberg has found that what most often blocks people from success and feeling capable in life is the inability to experience, move through, and handle these eight unpleasant feelings. Knowing how to deal with intense, overwhelming, or uncomfortable feelings is essential to building confidence, emotional strength, and resilience.

Yet when we distract or disconnect from these feelings, we move away from confidence, health, and our desired pursuits, ultimately undermining our ability to fully realize our ambitions. Neuroscientists suggest that the biological lifespan of a feeling, often known first through bodily sensations, lasts approximately 90 seconds. Dr. Rosenberg teaches listeners to be aware, consciously lean into, and balance these unpleasant emotions by riding one or more 90-second waves of the bodily sensations. By staying present to these eight feelings, we cultivate the confidence that we can handle life's challenges and the deep sense we can pursue whatever we want.

Combining more than three decades of clinical experience with aspects of clinical psychology, mindfulness, and neuroscience research, 90 Seconds to a Life You Love is a strategic and practical guide on building core emotional strength, reducing anxiety, and developing the confidence you need to create a life of your design - a life you love.

90 seconds is a good title but it will take longer

I am happy with this resourceful book to help me become aware of what is going on inside (emotions, thoughts, attitudes) and thus the ability to change it.
However i am a practical person too and the many exercises are dispersed and not easy to locate. That was frustrating. The chapters are not clear about how to change your response to situations. It is it not personal, it seems to be the problem in many books i read now...where they explain mostly versus help you change your ways. thank you for writing this book, it is something that I will try to use on how to observe and change my coping mechanisms.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
