Читать книгу Anxiety Toolbox: The Complete Fear-Free Plan - Gloria Thomas - Страница 5
Foreword
ОглавлениеAnxiety is a very common problem. Anxiety, fears and worry can severely disrupt your life and cause much needless suffering. Research with Heart Rate Variability (HRV) at Harvard – HRV is a placebo-free, objective measure of your state of health – also shows that phobias, worry and anxiety can shorten life expectancy.
Like many people, you may have tried conventional approaches to overcome your fears and phobias and received little or no help. You may feel that you simply do not know what to do to help yourself. This book provides some important answers.
The common motivation to get help and overcome anxiety or phobias is that a cure can radically change your life for the better. Freedom from anxiety makes life much easier, as you can devote your energy to enjoying your family and friends and dealing with everyday challenges, instead of being overcome by crippling fear.
With her book, Gloria Thomas has provided a concise but meaningful guide to various unconventional approaches. She takes a rare, serious, competent and balanced look at some of the lesser-known options that are available and offers an invaluable introduction to them.
Reading Anxiety Toolbox is a powerful and appropriate beginning to a new life free from anxiety and fear.
