To je priročnik o tesnobi: zakaj jo občutimo, kako jo doživljamo, ko nas zagrabi, in kaj lahko storimo, ko se znajdemo pod njenim vplivom. Skozi serijo esejev, ki obravnavajo temo z različnih vidikov, je ton vodiča prijazen, poln sočutja in praktičen v najboljšem smislu. Predolgo smo že trpeli pod bremenom tesnobe. Tukaj je končno pot do mirnejše, bolj sočutne in sproščene prihodnosti.

A guide to our anxious minds; offering a route to calm, self-compassion and mental wellbeing

Far more than we tend to realise, we’re all – in private – deeply anxious. There is so much that worries us across our days and nights: whether our hopes will come true, whether others will like us, whether the people we care about will be OK, whether we can escape humiliation and grief…

Too often, we bottle up our anxieties or try to avoid looking at them directly. We are ashamed of how worried we are and end up feeling isolated and yet more worried. None of this is necessary. Anxiety is deeply normal and, like so much else that troubles our minds, it can be understood and brought under our control. We all deserve to wake up every day without a sense of foreboding.

This is a guide to anxiety: why we feel it, how we experience it when it strikes and what we can do when we come under its influence. Across a series of essays that look at the subject from a number of angles, the tone is helpful, compassionate and, in the best sense, practical.

We have suffered for too long under the rule of anxiety. Here – at last – is a pathway to a calmer, more compassionate and more light-hearted future.

Topics Include:

•   How could we be anything but …?
• •   Anxiety & Evolution
• •   Anxiety & Modern Times
• •   Varieties of Anxiety
• •   An Ideal Life for the Anxious
