Synopsis

A clinical hypnotherapist and a psychiatrist provide ten simple solutions that help readers feel safe and stay calm when life changes or uncertain times make them feel vulnerable or anxieties start to hamper their daily activities. Offers quick and effective cognitive-behavioural techniques to help readers deal with fears that arise in their daily lives. In uncertain times, many of us start to feel more vulnerable than we'd like to feel. When personal life changes, such as job loss or financial reversals, couple with threatening headlines and terrifying news events, fears can rise to the point that we feel paralyzed, or even hesitate to take part in such common daily activities as driving on crowded freeways, flying or traveling far from home, or riding on a high-rise elevator. In this timely guide, clinical hypnotherapist and popular author Bruce Eimer joins with psychiatrist Moshe Torem to offer ten simple techniques to help readers cope with feelings of helplessness and vulnerability. By focusing on overcoming the often unconscious inhibiting beliefs that underlie fear, readers learn to assess the real risks involved in daily living, end obsessive thinking over possible outcomes or disasters, relax their mind and body, and stay flexible through uncertain times. A step-by-step approach, based on proven cognitive-behavioral principles, helps readers learn that uncertainty is temporary, build a tolerance to frustration, accept change as a given, cope with feelings of depression or anger, and begin to feel safe and confident again.
