We all feel anxious from time to time, but when does the occasional worry turn into a force that prevents us from fully living our daily lives?

Anxiety is a Worry is a comprehensive guide for managing anxiety in an increasingly anxious world. Filled with practical techniques supported by the latest research, this easy-to-navigate guide offers a comprehensive look at what anxiety actually is, possible treatment options, and how your thoughts play a key part in successfully managing your anxiety.

Anxiety is a Worry also includes in-depth sections on anxiety and children, the effects of technology and social media, and the role of sleep, exercise, and nutrition in a balanced life.

With real-world experience as a police crisis negotiator and a deep understanding of human behaviour, Lance Burdett has developed a road map for anxiety sufferers, drawing on the latest international research and tools. Whether you're managing your own anxiety, or are a parent, teacher, or counsellor of someone who is, Anxiety is a Worry is an indispensable resource for navigating our anxious world.
