Seven C's to Calm - Book - Self Care in Anxiety

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.

About Seven C’s to Calm

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.

Designed with Purpose

  • The book is intentionally small and simple because we tend to feel over-whelmed when anxious.
  • Seven C’s to Calm can be discreetly carried in your handbag or satchel and can act as a powerful anchor as you go about your day to day business.
  • A workbook is provided to make it easy for you to implement the suggestions in the Seven C's plan.

Reader Reviews

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. Some people think it's an overnight fix and that there’s something wrong when not feeling better straight away. 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."

Seven Cs to Calm it a good investment for people who want to restore calm and experience life with more purpose and joy.
