In Anxiety Free, Robert L. Leahy, Ph.D., best-selling author of The Worry Cure, looks at the origin of anxiety and teaches us how to outsmart our fears for a less stressful life.
Through his clinical practice, Leahy has realized that the human mind developed with preprogrammed rules for survival, and to break free from anxiety we need to rewrite these rules. In Anxiety Free, he addresses the six recognized anxiety disorders—specific phobia, panic, obsessive-compulsive, generalized anxiety, social anxiety, and post-traumatic stress—explaining what each is and which outmoded rules it follows. He then offers simple, step-by-step techniques for confronting and overcoming our specific anxieties.
