Synopsis

Complete with a foreword by Russ Harris, author of The Happiness Trap, Sit, Stay, Grow is a gentle, grounding companion for anyone carrying worry, self-doubt, or the weight of old stories.

Drawing on the quiet wisdom of dogs and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), this audiobook invites listeners to slow down, take new perspectives, and build resilience.

Across fourteen engaging chapters, counselor Angelika von Sanden explores, through real life stories, practical reflections and tender insights, how dogs can help us to create distance from unhelpful thoughts, deal with pain more effectively and do what truly matters.

Each chapter concludes with a short “Take a Thought for a Walk” exercise - simple, practical reflections designed to help integrating these lessons into daily life.

Narrated by Gabriele Urban with warmth, clarity and emotional presence, this audiobook sounds like a conversation with someone who understands the complexity of being human and the comfort of being met without judgement.

Perfect for listeners seeking hope, gentle guidance, or a way to reconnect with their own strength.

Sit, Stay, Grow is an invitation to choose growth, slowly, kindly, one puppy step at a time.
