Description

In this book, Nicola shares simple yet logical steps to help you stop trying to control your thinking, understand the nature of your thoughts and change your response to circumstances. Nicola Bird is a highly successful entrepreneur who suffered from anxiety and crippling panic attacks for over two decades. Her symptoms were sometimes so severe that she couldn't leave the house or had to take taxis to work to avoid large crowds, which terrified her. She tried everything she could to heal - from traditional treatments such as medication and psychiatry, to alternative therapies such as tapping and NLP, even studying psychology and training as a coach - but nothing helped. Then she realized that she was looking for the solution to anxiety in the wrong places - and discovered a new way of looking at anxiety that changed her life. Nicola is now anxiety-free and has written A Little Peace of Mind to share what she has learned with others. In this book, Nicola shares simple yet logical steps to help you stop trying to control your thinking, understand the nature of your thoughts and change your response to circumstances. Written with compassion and understanding, this book is a companion for anyone who is suffering from anxiety, panic attacks and stress.

Nicola Bird is a force of nature a gentle but powerful rain shower of wisdom and insight, helping us wash away our anxious thinking and rediscover the peace of mind at the heart of who and what we really are.
Michael Neill, bestsellingauthorofThe InsideOutRevolutionandTheSpace Within

What a relief! Anxiety is not a problem to be fixed but a normal human feeling to be understood. And how comforting to realize that anyone can gain a healthy relationship to anxiety by simply realizing the new understanding presented in this book.
DickenBettinger, Ed.D., retiredlicensedclinicalpsychologistandcoauthorof ComingHome

In A Little Peace of Mind Nicola shares her journey from anxiety and panic to joy, love, peace and ease in her life. This book will awaken hope for the many whose diagnosis is a description of WHERE they are rather than WHO they are. Reading this book will bring significant value for all who desire a gentler experience and greater resilience in the face of lifes challenges.

I really appreciate how, into her personal experiences with anxiety, Nicola weaves stories of her clients and the powerful insights that have transformed their lives. This book is an inspiring look at our humanness. Nicola beautifully illustrates that anxiety is not a life sentence.

This book is a game-changer. It presents a radically different understanding of anxiety and wellbeing which I believe will bring that long-fought struggle to an end.

This book will change your understanding of what anxiety is, and youll find yourself effortlessly dropping into a place of peace. It was there all along, but this book will help you see that you were just innocently looking in the wrong place for it.

In her down-to-earth and laugh-out-loud style, Nic explores the fundamental shift in understanding that dissolved the limits of her own life, and the lives of thousands of her clients. She is an exceptional force of honesty and love, and her teaching and writing are a gift to us all.
