Product details

The Mental Health and Wellbeing Workout for Teens is a phenomenal book. Filled with exercises to help a teen learn to identify and deal with the flurry of emotions and thoughts that bombard our brains every single day.

The only problem with this book (as with most self-help books in this genre) is that by the time someone needs this information, it's too late. In addition, the information within is likely going to be inaccessible to someone who is already in the wrong frame of mind.

I would love to see this book as part of a mandatory health unit in all schools for kids somewhere between the ages of 12 and 14. The lessons within are not easy to learn on your own and would be much better if presented as classwork just like math or language skills. Building these skills may not be fun, but they are necessary, and learning them before they're needed is key.

Thank you very much to NetGalley and Jessica Kingsley Publishers for providing me with a DRC of this book.
Great overview of useful practices for teens and adults. The exercises were presented clearly and should be easy for most teens to put into practice. I liked how Nagel doesn't talk down to the reader and offers useful tips. Even if this book is merely skimmed (which I wouldn't recommend), there is plenty to choose from!
If you have a motivated teen who is looking for help, I would recommend this book near the top of the reading list.
