Pause Button Therapy Martin & Marion Shirran with Fiona Graham Presents Pause Think Decide Act
Published worldwide by Hay House October 2012 £12.99 How "Pressing Pause" can be all that's needed to make a life changing difference!

If one "paused" for a second think how things might turn out differently? Would one snap at husband or wife so sharply? Would one shout at their child when they're winding up? Would one's child think twice about bullying in the playground? Would a young gang teenager think of the consequences of their actions if they pulled a knife?
Pause Button Therapy is a proven, innovative and interactive new therapy technique that allows one to do exactly this, empowering one to break out of negative habits and unconscious responses. PBT is based on an incredibly simple idea, but can be used for a whole host of issues. It provides additional thinking time, allowing a person to consider the potential consequences of their actions and adjust their behaviour accordingly.
PBT has been hugely successful in the treatment of everything from addictions and weight issues to depression, anxiety and relationship problems, and this book will show one the many ways in which one can use it to transform experience of life!
This is a simple, practical, effective technique that even a young child can grasp. PBT uses the idea of the Pause, Rewind, Fast Forward and Play buttons on a remote control device to help people give themselves more thinking time when faced with decisions. It teaches them how to ensure that they make the best possible use of that time to weigh up the potential consequences of their actions. This allows them to incorporate a blend of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy with PBT to live more effectively in the present.
With countless successful case studies the authors have treated with PBT and with plans to make this therapy available to schools, colleges, businesses and within the prison services this book and the Shirrans' work will leave a lasting testament that just "pausing" for a second or two and thinking of the consequences of a single action can have an incredibly transformative effect on one's and other's lives.
