It's time to claim your calm! For many people, anxiety has become the new normal. It keeps us up at night, greets us in the morning, prevents us from being fully present in our lives, and depletes our energy, resilience, and resolve. But it doesn't have to be this way. When anxiety gets in the way of the good stuff in life, the powerful writing prompts and exercises in this journal will help readers find lasting calm and peace of mind—even when “anxiety happens.”
From two internationally recognized experts on anxiety and authors of Anxiety Happens comes the guided journal, offering daily writing prompts based in proven-effective acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help readers make peace with uncertainty and soothe worry, fear, and panic. In addition to “in-the-moment” exercises for staying calm, the journal explores the underlying causes of anxiety, so readers can discover how to move past their anxious inner voice, and learn to focus on what really matters.
