No huyas de ti : Cómo relacionarte mejor con tus emociones difíciles y convertirlas en tu fuerza

There are times when the body tenses, the mind races, and emotions take over. In these moments, we feel we're at our limit, even though outwardly we continue functioning. Because no one taught us how to relate to what we feel: we learned to be silent, to endure, to distract ourselves, to keep going even when we can't anymore. "Don't Run Away From Yourself" stems from this experience, as common as it is rarely discussed. In this book, psychologist Bárbara Tovar, with years of experience supporting people through emotional crises, proposes that we stop running from what we feel and begin to listen to it and inhabit it. Not as an enemy, but as a source of information about our needs, our history, and the boundaries we need to protect. Through real-life cases, personal experiences, and a warm and honest writing style, the author shows how emotions like sadness, fear, anger, and guilt serve a purpose; How the body speaks when the mind is silent, and how the constant resistance to feeling is often what transforms pain into prolonged suffering. Far from offering quick fixes or magic solutions, this book invites us to pause, to look at ourselves with more kindness, and to learn to hold what hurts without breaking. A clear and profoundly human guide for those experiencing emotional exhaustion, who have become disconnected from themselves, or who feel they can no longer run away.
