The Anxiety and Panic Handbook: A Practical, Drug-Free Guide to Healing
()
About this ebook
A compact, all-inclusive, step-by-step handbook, sized to fit in a handbag. Contains an individual workable plan of action designed to facilitate healing.
This handbook is designed to share the tools I used to regain control of my life. By using my techniques, you can achieve results without resorting to medication, and it can be achieved within eight to twelve weeks. You can transform your world of fear and restriction to total freedom and peace of mind within this short amount of time, if you fully commit and dedicate yourself to using my program with passion.
My handbook provides you with a practical guide that will only take a few hours to read, without delving into complicated analysis and causes. It is about dealing with the issues and symptoms that are happening in the present and working toward regaining control quickly and inexpensively, whilst still in a comfortable home environment. My book provides an alternative to many treatments that involve medication and months or years of therapy. I believe that by focusing on the present and the future, and not reliving past experiences, you can achieve quick, lasting results. This book teaches you to deal with what is happening now, regain control of your thoughts, and move forward.
I have included a special chapter solely for your friends and family to read. It provides an insight into what you are going through and gives them practical advice on what they can do to support your recovery.

I would like to thank my parents for a lifetime of support and encouragement—and for always being there for me when I most needed them.
To my gorgeous sister, Mel: I would be lost without you. Thank you for your undying support, love, wisdom, strength, and humour. Your generosity of heart makes you an amazing sister and friend. You are such an inspiration, and I treasure having you as my sister. For that alone, I am truly blessed.
To my beautiful friend, Ally, who is always on hand to give advice and keep me on the path. I am so grateful that our friendship has endured for all these years.
To my friends, Dan and Macca: your humour, friendship, and weekly meditations were invaluable to my healing process. Thank you.
Finally, I want to thank Louise Hay. Without her books and subliminal tapes, I would have struggled for a lot longer. Her knowledge and wisdom really helped me change how I looked at the world. She showed me that I didn’t
