This pioneering workbook developed by expert Muslim Psychologists specialising in chronic pain, uses a cultural/religious adaptation of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), an evidence-based clinical intervention for supporting Muslims living with chronic pain.Through step-by-step practical guides and exercises incorporating spirituality and contemplation, the reader is guided towards using practical tools and strategies to release the struggle of fighting against pain and instead cultivate the psychological flexibility to live better with chronic pain. Drawing on Islamic teachings from the Quran and Sunnah, it nurtures spirituality and encourages readers to embrace acceptance. It inspires a commitment to living in accordance with one’s core values, empowering readers to find meaning and purpose even in the face of challenges.This workbook can be used as a companion to the book titled ‘Integrating Acceptance & Commitment Therapy with Islamic Psychotherapy’ (Routledge, 2024) for both clinicians in collaboration with their clients or as a standalone workbook for Muslims living with chronic pain.
