Discover why there is so much anxiety in society today, and how to protect yourself and your loved ones. If you're struggling with anxiety, don't get drawn into a world of mental illness and medication...Learn the truth about anxiety and take back control....Why am I more anxious than my family, my friends and my colleagues?What is wrong with me?The speeding heart and rapid breathing, the sweating, trembling, feeling 'on-edge' and that sense of impending danger are all extremely powerful. They descend upon us without warning and we cannot seem to stop them. These thoughts, feelings and behaviours, over which we have virtually no control, affect us deeply. Such powerful feelings and so little control – it's no wonder that anxiety can be seen as an awful problem, a terrible weakness, something that has to be eradicated from our lives at all cost. Yet anxiety is a vital part of being human. Indeed, every living organism on the planet has its own form of anxiety, its very own built-in self-protection instinct. Essentially to help us survive, to keep us alive, it sits quietly in the background waiting to spring into action when needed in times of danger. So why do I get so anxious when there is no danger?Why do I have more anxiety than others?What can I do about it?When the answer to these questions involves labels such as 'disorder' and 'mental illness' and provides treatments that offer no real control, it's easy to be drawn into self-defeating beliefs about anxiety – ones that shape not only the problem but also our entire life. But it doesn't have to be like this. For if we look at anxiety through the lens of evolution and survival and appreciate how this ancient survival instinct tries to protect us against new, modern-day threats (some of which didn't even exist just a generation ago) a very different picture emerges. It's not one of 'dis-order' or 'mental illness' because of something going wrong in our brain, but that of a normal, healthy person with a normal, healthy mind, being conditioned into a life of anxiety and fear due to personal experience with some of the unique threats and dangers that now exist. And the answer lies in understanding these dangers and how they cause anxiety to increase.'Calm Anxiety...' offers a totally new way to understand and deal with the anxiety that plagues so many of us today. It reveals, for the first time, what lies at the heart of the massive rise in anxiety problems in modern society and shows how to use this insight to cure these problems completely, permanently and naturally. | Calm Anxiety by Terry Dixon, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
