Do you lack a sense of control or purpose in your life? Do you often feel stuck in your professional or personal life? What are your core beliefs? Find the answers to these questions and more in The Theory And Practice of Well-Being. As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, Lee LaMee delves into some of life's biggest questions and presents a unique perspective on the human condition. You will learn to be self-disciplined, develop a strong inner self, and nurture effective social/relationship skills with an openness to experiences. According to Lee, a combination of confirmation bias and motivated belief often leads to disastrous outcomes when we have a narrow-minded outlook, closed off to introspection or critical feedback. The book focuses on the key mental, physical, and spiritual aspects that can lead us toward a fulfilling life.

Lee LaMee offers the tools and practices to help you analyze your agency and develop self-efficacy, comprehension, and rationalization skills to improve your overall well-being. Learn about the differences between happiness and contentment and examine the five essentials for developing a strong sense of self, including appreciation of personal worth, agency, autonomy, ability, and aim. The Theory And Practice of Well-Being provides readers with a thorough exploration of the key fundamentals that oversee the overall health of our body, mind, and spirit. The author cites the work of well-known life coaches and experts from psychology, philosophy, and psychiatry to present well-researched arguments about the nature of the human living experience and what we can do to enhance it during our time on this planet. I found the book thoroughly educational and thought-provoking. It is highly recommended.
