karenika 's review for:
"Hopefully at this point you are starting to realize that worry isn't a reliable predictor of the future."
If you, like me, tend to worry often and sometimes ceaselessly this workbook will be an invaluable tool for you. I've always been a worrier and before this book, I was familiar with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) so many of the CBT strategies in this book were not new to me.
There are two things that make this book magical, for me. One, it lays out the concepts in a really simple, easy to understand way. There are several examples that we visit again and again through each chapter, making it easy to find some ways to relate to the content and personalize it.
Two, the exercises themselves are invaluable. Being able to have a simple template to use to practice each concept and have ways to apply the concepts to my own individual life means that I am not just reading this book but I am using it and internalizing the concepts through practice.
"Worry is an unhelpful thinking response to a potential problem."
If you suffer from anxiety and would like a practical set of tools to help you do the hard work, this book is going to go a long way in helping you. This is not a miracle cure, and it might not even be the methodology that works best for you, but for me, a lot of what's in this book is incredibly helpful in being able to contextualize my thoughts and separate my thoughts and feelings from the facts.
