The Anxiety Skills Workbook: Simple CBT and Mindfulness Strategies for Overcoming Anxiety, Fear, and Worry

This workbook can help you learn how an anxious mind works and how to apply scientifically proven strategies to yourself to alleviate the distress and suffering that come with anxiety. It is broken down into manageable steps, which makes you feel good and confident that you can move to the next one. Anxiety problems can be challenging to face because simply thinking about them can feel uncomfortable. Dr. Hofmann does a great job guiding readers to consider what is important to them and how anxiety might interfere with life goals and aspirations. He gives you the right amount of information about how the anxiety cycle works in your mind and how to manage the thinking errors an anxious mind tends to make that make you feel so scared. Finally, he shows you how and why gradually facing the situations that trigger worry and fear helps your brain learn to be less anxious and worried. I highly recommend this very practical and accessible book to anyone looking for effective solutions for anxiety problems.

2 months ago I ran face first into a wall of anxiety that incapacitated me. Not only did this book help me climb out of the pit of anxiety, it taught me what I’d been doing wrong trying to avoid anxiety that just made the anxiety worse in the long run. It also provided good practices for reducing and handling anxiety in the future.Following the authors’ guidance is essential to success. It takes time (weeks) and practice to ingrain the lessons and techniques. I felt much better after 3 weeks but persisted, learned more, and now feel better and more resilient than I’ve felt for years.If you’re struggling with anxiety, you have my sympathy and empathy. This book can help. Best wishes.

Great book for help with anxiety issues. It’s definitely a book that can be referred to many times as things come up in life. So glad I picked it up.

I gave it as a gift and the person really liked it and says she uses it everyday.

Thanks

I am only a few sections in but the information provided in this book are pretty spot on, one of the scenarios hit a little too close to home for me, but it helped me understand the root of my procrastination.

I was hoping that there would be more pages to work on. But most of it is reading text. But not to bad overall. Fast shipping was one of the good things about this book.

I have found this workbook to be very helpful for my clients
