MINDFULNESS FOR TEEN ANXIETY.

For teens ready to move past their anxiety, panic, and worry, and start living the life they were meant to live, this book will be their guide—every step of the way.

Being a teen is hard enough without anxiety getting in the way. Teens are changing more than ever before—not just physically, but mentally. And if they suffer from panic attacks, chronic worry, and feelings of isolation, it can be very difficult to meet their goals and succeed. The good news is that there are real, powerful ways for teens to take control of their anxiety—and their life! Mindfulness for Teen Anxiety offers teens proven-effective, mindfulness-based practices to help them cope with anxiety, identify common triggers, learn valuable time management skills, and feel more calm at home, at school, and with friends. Teens will also learn tips for dealing with specific situations that cause anxiety, such as public speaking, social anxiety, test anxiety, and more. Finally, the book contains special breathing exercises to help calm teens down in moments of panic, as well as guided visualization exercises to help them stay cool and collected, even in the tensest situations.
