Description

This unique book combines the author’s clinical expertise with his personal experience as a former anxiety sufferer, to offer readers an incomparable blend of compassion and practical implementation that is sure to permanently transform their lives. Rather than fostering the cognitive-behavioral techniques prevalent in other books on this topic, this book approaches anxiety not as a disease to be controlled or eliminated, but as a messenger to be heeded.

Following the principles of the author’s well-renowned sixteen-week treatment program, this book teaches readers to understand the message their anxiety brings and respond to it. By doing so they reclaim their power to live fully and enjoy themselves. All anxiety sufferers will benefit from this groundbreaking book that provides a foundation for understanding the core causes of “excessive anxiety” (term coined by the author), and from that foundation builds specific, practical strategies for change.

Divided into sections on understanding and managing your anxiety, living fully instead of just hanging on, and methods of recovery, Claiming Your Birthright offers easy-to-understand, practical advice, together with exercises that will help reinforce the concepts presented. The author interweaves his own personal experiences suffering with anxiety throughout the book, building rapport with readers, increasing his credibility and appeal, and lending depth and dimension to the ideas he presents.
