the Mindfulness & Acceptance workbook For anxiety
Anxiety happens. It’s not a choice. And attempts to “manage” your thoughts or “get rid” of worry, fear, and panic can leave you feeling frustrated and powerless. But you can take back your life back without defeating your anxiety, and without having to conquer and control your anxious thoughts and feelings. You can stop avoiding anxiety and start showing up to your life. This book will get you started, using a revolutionary new approach called acceptance and commitment therapy, or ACT.

The workbook we are using has one purpose: to help you live better, more fully, more richly. Your life is calling on you to make that choice, and the skills in this workbook can help you make it happen. Find out how your mind can trap you, keeping you stuck and struggling in anxiety and fear. Learn to nurture your capacity for acceptance, mindfulness, kindness, and compassion. Using these qualities to shift your focus away from anxiety and onto what you really want your life to be about. As you do, your life will get bigger as your anxious suffering gets smaller. No matter hat kind of anxiety problem you’re struggling with, this workbook can guide you toward a more vibrant and purposeful life.
