Mastery of Your Anxiety and Worry (Workbook)

The book is really helpful, but will require a little homework. It not only helps you understand what is going on, but it guides you in an easy to follow format on how to feel better. It is not the typical "self help book". It allows you to feel what you feel, instead of someone just telling you how you feel. This book is great on your on or to work through with a professional.

My major HMO in Northern California uses this book for at least one of its overcoming anxiety classes. This workbook breaks down the symptoms and thinking errors that cause anxiety into simple, easy to understand chapters. Each chapter builds upon the previous one, so it is important to do the exercises in each chapter before progressing to the next chapter. It is a workbook, and it will require work. However, the work required will be worth it. This text helped me to finally understand my feelings and gave me very valuable techniques to employ to reduce the anxiety episodes I was having. I highly recommend this workbook to anyone struggling with anxiety !

At the request of my counselor, I purchased this workbook, and can I tell you how much it helped me master my anxiety. It's not a "block the anxiety" kind of book. Instead, the authors give you exercises to work with your anxiety - let it become part of you without tearing you apart.
