Drawing On Anxiety is a beautifully illustrated, interactive,
timely and friendly art therapy journal to draw out, draw on and
draw through in anxious times. Part memoir, part self-help and
self-care, this creative journal full of guided prompts and
grounding affirmations is a mindful, positive tool for exploring
your body's natural response to stress. Illustrator and author Kate
Sutton draws on her own personal experiences of dealing with
anxiety to create a warm and friendly journal that encourages you
to be kind to yourself, take a moment and explore your feelings
through the act of drawing. Built on art therapy principles and
filled with prompts to help you express yourself on the page, as
well as affirmations which help remind us that it will all be okay,
this diary will help give you the resilience and strength needed to
make it through those difficult moments. This book is part of the
Drawing On... series, a collection of creative guided journals
which help readers explore difficult topics including anxiety and
grief. Also available is Drawing On Grief, which explores the
delicate and difficult subject of loss, and how art therapy can
help us navigate this painful time.
The cultural phenomenon that has helped heal millions of readers, this modern classic holds the key to understanding codependency and unlocking its hold on your life.
Melody Beattie’s compassionate and insightful look into codependency—the concept of losing oneself in the name of helping another—has guided millions of readers toward the understanding that they are powerless to change anyone but themselves and that caring for the self is where healing begins.
Is someone else’s problem your problem? If, like so many others, you’ve lost sight of your own life in the drama of tending to a loved one’s self-destructive behavior, you may be codependent—and you may find yourself in this book. With personal reflections, exercises, and instructive stories drawn from Beattie’s own life and the lives of those she’s counseled, Codependent No More helps you break old patterns and maintain healthy boundaries, and offers a clear and achievable path to healing, hope, freedom, and happiness.
This revised edition includes an all-new chapter on trauma and anxiety—subjects Beattie has long felt necessary to address within the context of codependency—making it even more relevant today than it was when it first entered the national conversation over thirty-five years ago.
