The Anxiety Handbook

The Anxiety Handbook revolves around a 5-step program called A.L.A.R.M. enabling easy, accessible practical skills and techniques for anyone willing to do the work. The essential steps are as follows: Step 1 - Activate Your Parasympathetic Nervous System, Step 2 - Label 'What' You Are Feeling, Step 3 - Acknowledge That Emotions Are Temporary, Step 4 - Remember to AVOID Layering Your Thoughts & Emotions, Step 5 - Move Forward and Take Action. Supportive worksheets and journal elements are included to better help people practice their new skills. Currently, anxiety is the number 1 mental health disorder in the United States, with roughly 40 million people suffering annually and growing rapidly. Sadly, only an estimated 37% receive professional help, largely due to affordability and accessibility issues.
