Is it time to face your anxiety? One in five people suffer from anxiety disorders, but only a fraction of them seek help. Maybe you are one of them. Perhaps you are carrying on as if chronic anxiety is just a part of life, even when it inflicts constant pain and holds you back from living the life you want. Life gets busy, and we often neglect our mental health until we have a life crisis such as burnout, a relationship breakdown, or a diagnosis of a serious health condition.

You don’t have to wait until there is a crisis. There are two reasons why you’ll want to start freeing yourself from anxiety now. First, anxiety significantly reduces your quality of life as it wears you down and may lead to other health problems such as insomnia, depression, and chronic illness. Second, freedom from anxiety means you are free to be true to who you are, fearlessly living out your values and dreams. Drawing from personal stories, neuroscience, and evidence-based techniques, Jacqueline Y. Chu presents a simple step-by-step guide to freedom from anxiety.
