Using the principles of CBT, these 150 information pages and worksheets help adults to understand and manage symptoms of anxiety.The activities follow the framework of a typical CBT course: how it works, looking at the nature of the anxiety, linking thoughts, feelings, behaviour and physiology cycles, exploring different levels of thinking and beliefs, and identifying goals and future planning. Suitable for adults in individual or group work, this is an excellent resource to use as a standalone resource or in conjunction with professional therapy to deal with anxiety.

My favourite aspect of the book was how everything is in black/white and intricatepatterns so that you can colour it all in. Mindful colouring is known to be veryrelaxing and calming. This amount of detail allows the reader to fully immersethemselves in the activities and colouring in the space around them.I found this book useful in enforcing what I'd learned during my own CBTsessions. The art aspect was really helpful in helping me wind down and regaincomposure in moments when I just needed to step back and take a breather.Going back through it to see what you've written/drawn before is also useful forany periods of relapse where you need that reminder that you can be in controland there are ways to help you through everyday life.
