Synopsis

"Why are my anxiety alarms going off all the time?" "Why do I feel like I'm in an endless cycle of blame and anger and impatience?" "Why are the people I love most melting down around me?" No one needs to be told that our lives are filled with more anxiety than ever before. We know it. Our bodies can feel it. The questions we really need to answer "Why?" and "Is there anything we can do about it?" Dr. John Delony decided to get to the root of the issue by mapping out a plan to understand where our anxiety is coming from and the actions we can take to change it (because he's been there too). Over the past twenty years, he's learned through research, personal experience, and walking alongside countless others that there are six daily choices people have to make to create a non-anxious life:  Choosing Reality Choosing Connection Choosing Freedom Choosing Health and Healing Choosing Mindfulness Choosing Belief In this no-nonsense, straightforward approach to mental health, John will break down exactly what each choice means and how to start making it on a daily basis.  Now, here's the truth: Those choices aren't easy, and anxiety isn't going to magically disappear. But if you commit to building a non-anxious life, you'll be able to better respond to whatever life throws at you. You'll grow from hard challenges. You'll learn to find peace during chaos.  And you will learn to be well.

Goodreads review by Sam on January 29, 2024

Really liked it! This book defines that anxiety is the smoke alarm in our lives, that things are wrong/ not as they should be. It doesn't really follow the whole 'everything will be okay' or 'pray more' advice that some books offer, but more of 'you are anxious because you are not addressing issues i......more

Goodreads review by Madison on October 22, 2023

Parts of this book were really good & helpful. Other chapters I thought were uninspiring. Overall, the author gives some helpful suggestions for coping for anxiety.
