Description
From the award-winning author of Designing the Mind: The Principles of Psychitecture comes a short and incisive guide to anxiety mastery.
What if the relaxation methods you’ve used to calm your anxiety are actually making it worse? In The Anxiety Book, psychitecture pioneer Ryan A Bush argues that most popular advice for relieving anxiety gets it backward. Compiling and integrating the most effective clinical treatment principles, The Anxiety Book makes the case for a counterintuitive and courageous approach to mental health and life.
Drawing from the life's work of psychotherapists, ancient philosophical wisdom, and cutting-edge psychology, each of the thirty sections provides insights that are easily digested, thought-provoking, and actionable. From paradoxical intention to interoceptive exposure, The Anxiety Book reveals a full overview of proven worry treatment in just one hundred pages, playfully prompting readers to embrace uncertainty and remove avoidance from their lives.
This collection of lessons and quotes has been thoughtfully designed to help you cultivate emotional mastery. You'll learn: Thirty principles to overcome anxiety and find peace Empirically effective methods for ending and preventing panic attacks Behavioral techniques to gradually eliminate fears and phobias Thirty quotes from therapists, scientists, and philosophers on anxiety Mental tools to rewire worry and rumination
The physical book is beautifully designed with full-page quotes, diagrams, concept callouts, and key takeaways, and the writing is clever and compassionate. These life-changing principles have proven effective for everything from chronic worry to social anxiety to panic attacks, and this guide will teach you everything you need to stop managing anxiety, start mastering it, and gradually unravel your worries, one short but powerful lesson at a time.
