Grounded Exercises with Clear InstructionsBy Marion CaswellLength3h 1m
About this audiobook
Your mind is not broken. Your alarm is just far too easy to set off.
You have been told to breathe. To think positively. To stop worrying and calm down. None of it survived contact with three o'clock in the morning, or a supermarket aisle where your heart would not slow down.
This is a working book, not a reading book. Every worksheet gives you numbered instructions, a fully filled-in example, and real room to write — so you are never sitting in front of a blank box wondering what is supposed to go in it.
Inside you'll find:
• 23 worksheets — each with step-by-step instructions and a worked example
• A 28-day plan — about fifteen minutes a day: notice, question, test, live it
• Grounding skills taught first — five ways to steady yourself in under two minutes, before any thought work
• Thought records explained slowly — one step at a time, with every common sticking point answered
• Fear ladders that start small enough to climb — and a prediction sheet that shows you how often your anxiety is simply wrong
• Chapters for your kind of anxiety — worry and overthinking, panic and body sensations, social anxiety, health anxiety, work and money, and night-time
• A setback chapter — for the week it all unravels, because it will, and that is not failure
Written in plain English. No jargon. No lectures.
Built on cognitive behavioural therapy — the most heavily researched approach to anxiety there is — and written for someone sitting at a kitchen table at eleven o'clock at night, tired and anxious, who needs to know exactly what to write in the box.
This book will not tell you that anxiety disappears. It will show you how to have it and do the thing anyway.
Open it at page one. Pick up a pen. Start tonight.
This book is educational and is not a substitute for professional diagnosis or treatment. If your anxiety is severe or worsening, please speak to a qualified healthcare provider.
