Feeling tense, restless, or “always on edge”? You’re not broken — your brain is just doing its job.
In How To Stop Being Anxious, psychologist Owen MacMillan, PhD, reveals how anxiety is not a personal weakness, but a biological alarm system that’s been hijacked by modern life. Drawing on the latest neuroscience and behavioral research, this book gives you the practical, science-based tools to calm your mind, break free from overthinking, and take back control of your life.
Through clear explanations and guided exercises, you’ll learn to:
Understand the biology of anxiety and why your brain mistakes everyday stress for danger
Escape the anxiety loop of worry, tension, and avoidance
Calm your body first — with simple breathing, grounding, and movement techniques
Reframe anxious thoughts and stop catastrophizing “what if” scenarios
Build habits that protect your nervous system — sleep, nutrition, and digital boundaries
Strengthen your calm identity and confidence, even in a chaotic world
This is not another “think positive” manual or quick fix. It’s a compassionate, practical guide rooted in science and written in plain language. You’ll find mindfulness tools, cognitive-behavioral insights, and short, doable daily practices that help you retrain your brain’s alarm system — gently, effectively, and without judgment.
If you’ve ever thought, “I should be able to calm down,” this book will show you why that instinct is natural — and how to work with your mind instead of against it.
Whether you struggle with constant worry, racing thoughts, or physical tension that never seems to fade, How To Stop Being Anxious will help you understand what’s really happening inside your body and mind — and guide you toward a calmer, steadier way of living.
