The Anxiety Happens Guided Journal: Write Your Way to Peace of Mind

It's time to claim your calm! Break free from anxiety with this guided daily journal--from the authors of Anxiety Happens.

Do you feel anxious or stressed out most of the time? Do you worry obsessively about what might happen in the future, or ruminate endlessly about the past? You are far from alone. For many people, anxiety has become the new normal. It keeps us up at night, greets us in the morning, prevents us from being fully present in our lives, and depletes our energy, resilience, and resolve. But it doesn't have to be this way.

From two internationally recognized experts on anxiety and the authors of Anxiety Happens comes the guided journal, offering daily writing prompts based in proven-effective acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help you make peace with uncertainty, and soothe worry, fear, and panic. In addition to "in-the-moment" exercises for staying calm, you'll explore the underlying causes of your anxiety, discover how to move past your anxious inner voice, and learn to focus on what really matters to you--so you can finally move past anxiety and live your best life.

If you're tired of anxiety getting in the way of the good stuff in life, the powerful writing prompts and exercises in this journal will help you find lasting calm and peace of mind--even when "anxiety happens.
