Product Description
A strategy-filled handbook to understand, manage, and conquer your depression, modeled after its best-selling counterpart on anxiety.

Living with Anxiety: A Clinically Tested Step-by-Step Plan for Drug-Free Management

Sunday, 23. May 2010

Product Description
For the increasing number of people who suffer from some major form of anxiety, help that promotes effective management of the condition without drugs.

According to a 1999 Surgeon General’s report, “Anxiety disorders are the most common, or frequently occurring, mental disorders.” Too often overworked doctors prescribe drugs to manage the condition for a short-term cure and send the patient on his way quickly. Psychologists Bob Montgomery and Laurel Morris strongly disagree with treating anxiety disorders with drugs. Their timely book provides a step-by-step plan to help anxious people learn to cope without resorting to medication, even for severe manifestations of anxiety such as obsessive-compulsive disorders and panic attacks.

In easy-to-understand terms, Montgomery and Morris define anxiety, describe the different forms it takes, and show how to manage anxiety in everyday life. They discuss general anxiety, agoraphobia, phobias in general, social phobias, and social anxiety, among other types.

Living with Anxiety discusses how and why to stop taking anxiety drugs and when drugs can help; it also recommends when to seek out a psychologist. It offers readers practical exercises and specific strategies for dealing with feelings, thoughts, and physical symptoms associated with anxiety attacks, and methods for strengthening social, sexual, and interpersonal skills that can be the source of anxiety.

Features of this workbook include Brian Luke Seaward’s unique holistic perspective on uniting mind, body, spirit and emotions and a writing style acclaimed for being very user friendly, often described as if one is having a conversation with the author.

The association between stress and disease is well documented, from the common cold to cancer. However stress also distorts decision making, disrupts emotional thought processing and compromises the health of the human spirit. Good stress management is nothing more than common sense, but in a fast paced, fragmented society, good sense is anything but common. Achieving the Mind-Body-Spirit Connection serves as a wonderful reminder of what we know at the deepest level of our being: Optimal health requires the integration, balance and harmony of mind, body, spirit and emotions. Drawing upon the disciplines of psychology, physiology, sociology, theology, anthropology, mythology and quantum physics, Dr. Seaward blends the proven tenets of ageless wisdom with a score of practical ideas, suggestions and exercises to help you truly achieve harmony between mind, body, spirit and emotions. From comic relief and hatha yoga to guided mental imagery and music therapy, this workbook contains over 70 exercises which serve to integrate mind, body and spirit as one dynamic force that can withstand the pressures of whatever stress may come your way.
