The wisdom of anxiety : how worry and intrusive thoughts are gifts to help you heal
Paul, Sheryl, 1971-2019
Books
Three million people are thought to suffer from anxiety in the UK, and it is an issue that affects a growing number of people across all ages. In 'The Wisdom of Anxiety', Paul reveals that anxiety, like any emotion, is a signal - a clear bodily invitation to heal and renew your trust in your choices, self-image and core values. Weaving together practical exercises with personal stories, she offers medication-free approaches for accessing the gifts in different kinds of anxiety, and especially the anxiety summoned by life's transitions, for example a career change, becoming parents or becoming carers for loved ones. Chapters include recognising the symptoms of anxiety, its origins, the myth of 'normal', the expectation of happiness and a timeline of healing that includes exercises for the body and mind.
