In an increasingly fast-paced, competitive world, stress and anxiety affect 37 million people in the US alone. Panic attacks, phobias, avoidant and compulsive behavior, worrying, obsessions, and frightening body symptoms such as racing heart, breathing difficulties, sweating, nausea, numbness, and weakness are all signs of anxiety. According to experts, anxiety develops from personal characteristics and external pressures. It is largely a learned reaction to stress overload in people with a sensitive temperament, but through new skills and habits, anxiety can be replaced with greater peace, optimism, and joy.
Now in its second edition, Dancing with Fear: Controlling Stress and Creating a Life Beyond Panic and Anxiety, continues to provide a practical approach to overcoming anxiety. Written by Dr. Paul Foxman, an experienced psychologist for over 30 years, this book provides self-help strategies and non-pharmaceutical alternatives that offer relief and long-term self-empowerment.
While sharing his own story, Dr. Foxman explains different anxiety disorders and their diagnostic criteria, the negative and positive traits of the anxiety personality, the pros and cons of drug treatments, how poor nutrition contributes to our mental health, and much more. Other important topics include:
· New medical research and technology
· New methods of controlling stress
· 35 Self-help skills and exercises
· Techniques to increase energy and improve sleep
Dancing with Fear will teach readers to "dance" with life and successfully handle stress in their lives.
