Attitude Reconstruction is written by Jude Bijou, a licensed marriage and family therapist operating in Santa Barbara, CA. She wrote and published Attitude Reconstruction: A Blueprint for Building a Better Life and the book has enjoyed immense success. Jude’s search led to a discovery of Vedic philosophy and Eastern techniques for self-help and life improvement. She embraced these ideas, using meditation and holistic forms of therapy to achieve her own inner peace while developing a system, which she would eventually name Attitude Reconstruction, to help other people enjoy the same great benefits in their own lives.

Jude opened her own therapy center in 1982 and began to teach Attitude Reconstruction to families, couples, and more, while also giving talks and lectures via Santa Barbara City College. Attitude Reconstruction is an easy to read guide to Jude Bijou's breakthrough methods of leading a better life, ridding oneself of stress, worry, and doubt, and replacing all of those negative emotions with positive feelings of confidence, high self-esteem, and inner peace. attitudereconstruction.com
