Written by a nutritionist who cured himself of his own panic attacks, this book contains cutting edge information not found elsewhere. The author describes how he cured himself of both agoraphobia and the fear of driving on the freeway, by using some specific mental exercises. After accidentally stumbling upon a nutritional factor that immediately helped him take control of his state of mind, he then proceeded to identify several other nutritional deficiencies that nearly all panic attack sufferers have in common. The author explains how some of these deficiencies predisposition people to experience panic attacks and "racing" thoughts. A detailed description of all of these unhealthy deficiencies is provided, along with specific information on how to supply one's body and mind with these critical nutrients. The author takes a holistic, three-pronged approach to treating and preventing anxiety and panic attacks, with the second approach focusing on your thoughts and the third approach addressing emotional, energy and spiritual issues. A "Daily Plan" is included that suggests specific actions the reader can perform.

This book is packed with potentially life changing information and amazing facts, presented concisely, that will help anyone suffering from anxiety, depression and related conditions. This book can help someone make a quick and radical shift into a panic-free life.
What is resilience, and how can you build it? In The Resilience Workbook, Glenn Schiraldi-author of The Self-Esteem Workbook-offers invaluable insight and outlines essential skills to help you bounce back from setbacks and cultivate a growth mindset. Why do some people sail through life's storms, while others are knocked down? Resilience is the key. Resilience is the ability to recover from difficult experiences, such as death of loved one, job loss, serious illness, terrorist attacks, or even just daily stressors and challenges. Resilience is the strength of body, mind, and character that enables people to respond well to adversity. In short, resilience is the cornerstone of mental health. Combining evidence-based approaches including positive psychology, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and relaxation, The Resilience Workbook will show you how to bounce back and thrive in any difficult situation. You'll learn how to harness the power of your brain's natural neuroplasticity; manage strong, distressing emotions; and improve mood and overall well-being. You'll also discover powerful skills to help you prevent and recover from stress-related conditions like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression, anger, and substance abuse disorders. When the going gets tough, you need real, proven-effective skills to manage your stress and heal from setbacks. The comprehensive and practical exercises in this workbook will help you cultivate resilience, stay calm under pressure, and face all of life's challenges.
Becoming aware of . . . one great emotion permeates your being. You live with a perpetual feeling of reverence. The knowledge that your creator is the very self of yourself and never would have made you had he not loved you must fill your heart with devotion, yes, with adoration. One knowing glimpse of the world about you at any single instant of time is sufficient to fill you with profound awe and a feeling of worship. It is when your feeling of reverence is most intense that you are closest to God, and when you are closest to God your life is richest. -Neville Goddard
Let me see if I can guess where you are. You are probably curious what those ten most stressful situations might be. Maybe you've faced some tough decisions based on a sagging economy. Maybe you've been involved in an unwelcome divorce and are trying to cope with it. It's possible that you are dealing with the loss of a loved one, a physical injury or just the general uncertainty of life.In any case you picked up this book for some help dealing with stress. So let me share with you a couple premises upon which this book is based. First of all, I make the assumption that not everyone can change his or her circumstances, nor that that may even be advisable. Secondly, I make the assumption that in many cases people are dealing with one or more types of these stresses at the same time. The book is meant to help ease those frustrations. With this as an introduction, counselor and pastor-teacher Dave DeLuca moves on to help us look at ten common situations which need to be dealt with. We look at the similarity of the tactics which were employed, and from it draw principles that we can relate to the questions each of us face in our everyday lives. Perhaps more importantly we'll look at those that we are going to face in the future. He deals with everything from "how to handle ridicule" to "how to hear falsehoods about you and keep your cool" to "how to keep going though you'd rather quit." He looks at the various role models we have, and used to have, and helps us identify practical ways of dealing with each of the issues based upon the life and lives of those who are our ultimate examples. In the process he carefully draws our attention to the one primary example and great physician for all of us.

Those who go through a catastrophic life experience often feel permanently changed by the impact of what has happened. They become numb and shut off from those around them and grief or guilt may constantly weigh them down. Memories of horrifying scenes may intrude unexpectedly during waking hours while sleep may be disturbed by vivid, unpleasant dreams. Traumatic stress responses, including Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (or PTSD), are psychological conditions that result from a person's coping resources having been completely overwhelmed by a terrible experience. These 'flashbacks' can be so severe that sufferers may feel that they are losing their sanity and subsequently become isolated in their distress. This book demonstrates, with practical advice and tested exercises, how to find new, effective ways of coping with, and finally overcoming, traumatic stress. Overcoming self-help guides use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) techniques to treat disorders by changing unhelpful patterns of behaviour and thought. CBT is internationally favoured as a practical means of overcoming long-standing and disabling conditions, both psychological and physical. Many guides in the Overcoming series are recommended by the UK Department of Health under the Books on Prescription scheme.
