Produktbeschreibung

Anxiety doesn't just live in your mind-it hijacks your body, distorts your sense of control, and traps you in worry loops that feel impossible to escape. This book offers a clear, practice-driven way out, combining ancient stoic practices for anxiety with the precision of modern cognitive science to break the patterns that keep you stuck.

Instead of chasing temporary relief, you'll learn to stop reassurance seeking, tolerate discomfort without panic, and shift from fear-driven reactions to values-based decisions. Each chapter delivers concrete tools you can apply immediately-whether you're battling social dread, spiraling thoughts at 2 a.m., or the physical jolt of a sudden panic.

Inside, you'll discover how to:

- Run a fast anxiety controllability audit so you act on what you can influence and release the rest

- Use uncertainty tolerance techniques to end the exhausting cycle of over-preparation and avoidance

- Train your body to handle physical symptoms through interoceptive exposure at home

- Apply the Stoic "view from above" meditation to dissolve catastrophic thinking

- Anchor every decision in values-based action for anxiety, so you move forward even when fear is loud

This isn't about suppressing anxiety-it's about retraining your mind and body to meet it with skill. Whether you've tried CBT-inspired stoic methods before or are new to these ideas, you'll find a step-by-step framework that works in real life: in meetings, in relationships, in moments of crisis.

Calm isn't something you wait for-it's something you do. And with these tools, you'll finally have the clarity and control to live the life your anxiety has been holding back.

Autorenporträt

Rowan Mercer writes practical, evidence-aware guides that bridge ancient wisdom and modern psychology. Known for a calm, clear voice and field-tested exercises, Rowan focuses on helping readers face uncertainty without avoidance, build discomfort tolerance, and act on their values under pressure. Years of close work with everyday strivers-teachers, founders, parents, first-time managers-shaped Rowan's conviction that steadiness is a trainable skill, not a personality trait. When not writing, Rowan refines simple daily rituals-brief audits, breathing drills, and "courage reps"-that turn stressful moments into opportunities for agency. Rowan's mission is straightforward: make Stoic principles usable at 7:15 a.m. on a hard Monday, not just admirable on the page.
