Many people are struggling on a daily basis (often in silence) with the torment and discomfort of anxiety. Anxiety robs us of our energy and joy. I know because I used to be affected by anxiety and I’ve even experienced panic attacks.
Keeping quiet about anxiety means that you’re less likely to discover that recovery is possible. Once I opened up about it I was able to explore options for restoring calm. Doing this has given me the confidence and freedom to do the work I do today.
I wrote 'Seven C's to Calm - Reclaiming your anxiety-free self' to provide support and encouragement for people who are suffering with anxiety and especially for those of you who do not know where to start.
In this little book, I share insights and tips that I’ve learned from my 20 years+ of personal experience and study, which have empowered me to live with greater authenticity and wellbeing.
My readers have given Seven C’s to Calm a resounding thumbs up for its effectiveness and no-nonsense approach.
"Anxiety is often overwhelming but the practical ideas in this book make it seem manageable.

The suggestions for the daily and weekly plan is are great as sometimes even wondering what to do for that can cause anxiety so I found that really helpful."

"Developing trust for following your instincts can take some trial and error but it’s a powerful feeling when you get a clear sign that you did the right thing." I left a teaching career in 1999, following burn out from stress and anxiety. Simply putting it I was a mess. I had kept an external […]
