Publisher's summary

Discover how to tame that vicious monster inside your head and take charge of your life again.

Do you always find yourself thinking of the worst-case scenarios, no matter how outlandish they may seem?
Would you rather avoid meeting someone new for fear of being judged by them?
Are you often paralyzed with terror, complete with racing heartbeats, sweaty palms, and rapid, shallow breathing?

It’s completely normal to feel nervous and panicky, given the daily challenges we encounter at work and at home, a society that tends to be critical of appearances and behavior, plus extraordinary sources of stress like the pandemic.
However, when the feeling of distress does not go away for a prolonged period, and your fears seem to have crippled you from doing things you usually do, it is time to do something.
When anxiety becomes unmanageable, it does not only interfere with your quality of life… it can also lead to serious and adverse health consequences.

Anxiety itself should be a cause of alarm – according to the World Economic Forum, it is the number one mental health concern people face today. In fact, roughly 275 million people – or around 4% of the global population, suffer from anxiety disorders.
However, while excessive anxiety and stress can be disruptive and harmful, there are plenty of ways to control the things that feed them so you can better cope with the symptoms and overcome them completely.

Fortunately, this book is packed with everything you need to know to stop anxiety – along with its debilitating effects – in its tracks.
Inside, here is just a small fraction of what you will discover:

  • What anxiety is and what it’s not – don’t let misconceptions get in your way to conquer the condition.
  • 6+ types of anxiety – find out which one you’re suffering from so you can deal with it properly.
  • What mindfulness is and why Oprah Winfrey, Kate Middleton, and Goldie Hawn swear by its benefits – plus simple ways to practice it yourself!
  • The power of positive affirmations – with a list of motivational mantras that you can use every single day of the month.
  • How to successfully let go of your past so you can focus on the present – don’t skip this crucial step if you want to manage your anxiety.
  • 12+ types of breathing to blow your worries away before they become serious anxiety attacks.
  • Fail-safe techniques to eliminate your anxiety physically, mentally, and emotionally.

And much more.

When left unchecked, anxiety can wreak havoc on your mind, emotions, and body… increasing your risk of suffering from severe conditions that can even threaten your life.
It’s time to stop feeding the beast that is responsible for your internal chaos. With a simple and practical three-step approach, you can control your symptoms and beat anxiety before it completely takes over your life.

Delving into the subject of anxiety, this book takes a fresh perspective by debunking common myths.

Beyond offering ways to calm anxiety in the heat of the moment, the book particularly underscores the significance of intention, which I find to be a crucial aspect. This resource is a valuable guide for those seeking holistic methods to manage anxiety, providing practical insights that transcend conventional wisdom. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to approach anxiety with mindfulness and intentionality.

Struggled with Anxiety For A While

As someone who's had their fair share of anxiety, listening to this audiobook felt like a step in the right direction. The book gets right into the thick of things, explaining anxiety in a way that's relatable and easy to grasp. It was kind of like having someone put into words what you've been feeling. The narrator's voice was also a bonus, soothing and clear, making it easy to get into the flow. The part about different types of anxiety was a real help. It's one thing to know you're anxious, it's another to understand the specific type you're dealing with. The mindfulness techniques are simple yet effective. The daily affirmations are a nice touch, giving you something positive to focus on each day. And the breathing exercises, were also a nice reminder to help when you feel that wave of panic coming on. The three-step method the book talks about isn't complicated, which is great because the last thing you need when you're anxious is more complexity. For anyone who's been struggling with anxiety or just wants to handle stress better, this audiobook is a solid listen. Highly recommended.
