Anxiety seems to have overtaken society. The author’s premise in “Own Your Own Anxiety” is “about owning your anxiety rather than being owned by
it. It’s about seeing that anxiety as a gift, an invitation to a better way of
living.” There are none of the usual “Get rid of” or “heal yourself.”
We have all been there when the situation sets our nerves to take over and run through
our bodies turning us into a revolving whirl, it can be when we are put in a spotlight,
going on stage, giving a presentation, dealing with a personal trauma, taking a test,
relationship issues, going to the dentist or hearing results from your doctor. Some of
us are more prone to these situations than others. We all have different reactions with
our genetics influencing our own responses on various levels of seriousness. Most of
us who have experienced anxiety know how to deal with it in a negative way i.e., eating,
drinking, smoking, the list goes on. Here is your opportunity to turn those anxious
moments into positive energy.
Brass focuses on 99 ways to convert your anxieties into working for you. And it is
amazingly easy to get started with the help of “Own Your Own Anxiety.”
The book is formatted into three parts: Own Your Body, Own Your Mind, and Own
Your Soul. Within you’ll find The 99 ways—”Owning Anxiety is a series of decisions, all undertaken with love for your self.” You may find it
helpful to refer to the book on a daily basis or sit down
and go through the index marking the topics that are
of interest to you. And later read those topics. Brass
does have a way of turning issues into a positive and
pleasant style.
Topics vary to name a few—Breathe, Smile More,
Swim, Quit Or Reduce Coffee, Laugh More Often,
Don’t Park Illegally, Give Gratitude, Know Your
Direction, Keep Your Phone Away From Your Bed, Say
“No” More, Own Your Finances, Visualize, and Get
To Know Your Crossing Guard are just a few of the 99
featured.
You may find that not all of the 99 themes apply to
you but you may have a family member or a friend
that may benefit from having their own copy of “Own
Your Own Anxiety.”
