Such a great book. I immediately started practicing the exercises it gives and have felt very joyous in the last few days.

A good place to start when dealing with fear or anxiety. The author provides helpful exercises and stories which illustrate these.

I decided to listen to this on audiobook because it became available at my local library and I'm a sucker for non fiction that's read by the person who wrote it.
The main message I took away from this book: I can handle it.
Dr Jeffers explains a lot about the concept of fear and how you can tread new mental paths by saying certain sentences or simply changing a word in a phrase you usually say. Like anything we do in life, from brushing out teeth to walking to rumination it's all habits and patterns and automation and with tike and effort we can change our thoughts and reprogramme fear.
I feel like it lost its way a little in that last quarter and I'm jnot sure why but i found myself upping the speed of the audio to get through it quicker.

This book helped me so much. Recommend 100% if you're a little bit shy like me.
