About this ebook

Levels of anxiety and depression are on the rise. If you have ever felt overwhelmed by the pressures of modern living, yet unsure about how to regain control of your own life direction, then this is the book for you. Based on more than 25 years of clinical experience, Linda Blair offers numerous practical suggestions to help you overcome problems such as anxiety, insomnia, negative thinking, a loss of contentment, an unhappy past and a tendency to relapse into unconstructive habits. She explains clearly how you can create your own treatment manual and she uses case studies to guide you on your way.

This is a book that will encourage you to think more positively, whatever problems you face, and enable you to start managing your life more effectively.
