Restoring the wellbeing that anxiety takes away
Of all the possible blows to your emotional health, anxiety is the most treatable. In this intimate, exciting book, best-selling author Stephanie Dowrick, PhD, challenges the way anxiety is usually thought about. Writing from her personal as well as professional experience, she emphasizes the profound relationships between your mind and body - plus you and the world you live in. She makes life-giving change possible.
There are many strong ideas here to make your own, including proven emergency strategies for the hardest times, making way for clearer thought - and lasting self-care.
Using her powerful gifts of story and memoir, plus the latest mind-body research on stress as well as anxiety, Stephanie Dowrick speaks up for a new understanding of personal power. Anxiety may be limiting your life. But it is never the whole 'you'. It need never define you.
