About this listen

Holding the Heavy Stuff is a unique, illustrated self-help guide for anyone who has struggled with low mood, worries, self-doubts or mean thoughts about themselves and then found it difficult to move their life forward.

It is for people who feel overwhelmed or consumed by worries about the future, or find themselves stuck reliving moments from their past.

It is for those who have days, weeks or months when sadness takes over and getting through each hour feels challenging.

It is for those who can't imagine life getting better as the world gets worse.

It is for people who feel dumped on or knocked off track.

It is for all of us who face tragedy and difficulty and feel weighed down.

Perhaps you struggle to live the life you want or are holding too much heavy stuff. The more you try to fight this internal pain, the more you have it. Instead of struggling against it, this book offers a different approach. You will learn ways to carry the heavy stuff with you as you go where you want to go.©2025 Ben Sedley

Critic Reviews

'The exceptionally practical, deceptively simple personal psychology book you didn't know you needed (though you really, really do)... Clear and simple and kind... a triumph of conciseness and utility, and totally devoid of bullshit. The exercises and practices are genuinely useful rather than just filler content. The author translates ACT principles into everyday language - and actions - without diluting their therapeutic power... Holding the Heavy Stuff is full of things any of us can do to feel better and take positive action'
