Anxiety. It has no place in any executive role for its ability to affect your decisions and make you question yourself.

This book is designed to break the cycle of worry with a base in cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy.

Psychologist and anxiety expert David Carbonell shows you both sides of the coin on how anxiety hijacks the brain and on how to break the cycle with effective techniques.

Key takeaways from this are to stop fighting and let those feelings of worry and anxiety be there so that you can understand what is happening and not let the feelings overcome you and ruin what you have ahead in life.

The Worry Trick is more ideal for those who suffer from worrying about improbable events, but you can still take some on Carbonell’s words to manage your real and present stressful problems.
