Little Ways to Keep Calm and Carry On: Twenty Lessons for Managing Worry, Anxiety, and Fear

Honestly one of the best books I've ever purchased. Very quick and to the point, no frills, which is SO important if you have anxiety, as it can be hard to immerse yourself in something for too long. Exercises are wonderful for self reflection, and perfect for preparing yourself for the right questions - either to yourself, your loved ones, or your therapist.This truly is a one-size fits all book for ALL anxiety, even the most severe (I have what's arguably the hardest one to deal with since there is no such thing as exposure therapy for it and you can never fully overcome it). It covers everything from social anxiety to phobias of death, from everyday stress to how to deal with loss.I carry this tiny book with me in my purse on days I might need to pause and gather myself. It offers no empty promises or reassurances like a lot of books do with "uplifting anecdotes" about people who aren't you - it keeps things logical and in perspective, which is what most anxiety sufferers truly need.

i love this book. i found it to be a great read and gave me helpful tools. its short and not overwhelming. i feel so strongly about this book that i’ve sent it to multiple people dealing w anxiety.

Read the book in a couple hours, lots of good information. I won't say it is "life changing" or a "life saver" as have others, that being a bit over the top and may turn off some people who assume it is coming from hypsters or gullible sorts, but I thought there were several good points coming from a mental health professonal who is well-credentialed. Second book I have read in a week that refers to monkey chatter in the head and not allowing a bird that lands on your head to build a nest in your hair (The Power of Self-Coaching). Probably just a coincidence.

In this world that is full of stress this was a welcome sight for learning how to get through the small things that often time build into big things. Easy to read and understand and the exercises are helpful. Thumbs up,

I was having some difficulty in choosing between this book and the original version of the book, which contains quotes and such for hard times. While I love quotes and an avid collector of ones I love and find helpful, the positive reviews this book has received aren't without basis. It's extremely helpful and insightful. I happen to have PTSD and use a multitude of different things to assist me with the anxiety I have as a result. If you work through this book and truly utilize the knowledge it has to provide, you will find a few more tools in your anxiety "toolbox".

This book has a lot of good information in it. The on drawback for me was in the Kindle version. The format in which the words are presented are horrible. The sentences are in the middle of each page and a lot of words a broken up and makes it hard reading. Also in the middle there are sometimes 15 to 20 words in a single line (one letter by itself) right down the middle of the page with no seperation of the words. This for me seemed crazy. You had to sit and try to disassemble each word. Then 3 letters of a word would be on one page and 4 or the remaining lettyers of the word would be on the next page. If you buy this book it is good reading and very helpful just get the paperback version

I’ve had anxiety my whole life this book helped .I know it sounds silly but this little handbook taught me a few simple things that have help me control that anxiety better than I did before I read the little red book. To my suggestion is if you have anxiety why not give it a try and hurt

This little book has meant so much to me. It is a little "portable toolbox" of anxiety helps that really do work, and the format isso user-friendly and easy to understand and implement. Highly recommend to anyone who struggles with anxiety and worry.Thanks to the author for making such an effective handbook for a challenge that many people are wrestling with in theworld we live in today. Uplifting and Empowering, yet extremely practical and hands-on. I am very grateful for this book.

I appreciated this book for its simple reminder of the good old values and principles and for being so easy to read.

Arrived promptly, exactly as described.Seller and product recommended.
