Descriere

Not your typical book on anxiety! This guide immediately brings the reader into the first things... you are good! You are loved! You are enough! This is NOT one of those 500-page anxiety books that gives you anxiety just thinking about picking it up. This easy-to-read 134-page book is purposefully designed and spaced to make it easy for the anxious person, a dyslexic person (like the book's author, Catherine!), slow readers, or readers who want to spend additional time with the material in thought, journaling, prayer, small groups, spiritual direction, or therapy sessions. No, you're not crazy! Anxiety is a natural response of the body. AND... God gave it to us as a gift to keep us safe! By the end of the book, you'll be thanking God for your anxiety. The Catholic Guide Through Anxiety - 2nd Edition contains revisions, updates, an entire section of prayers to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, quotes from saints, and scriptural references. This is a guide to work through and finally understand anxiety, presented from a Catholic perspective. Please be assured that you don't need to be a Catholic to read this, there's fantastic information for everyone, however, please be aware there are thoughts, prayers, imagery, strategies, and sentiments that are innately and traditionally Catholic. This book will help you understand and overcome your anxiety, AND it will also help those wanting to learn how to help loved ones who struggle with anxiety. This guide is fantastic for readers of all ages, including kids, teens, and college students.
