Description

Anxiety is a huge subject yet it's only really in recent years that we've started to accommodate as a very natural and normal emotional state. In the past, being anxious might have been seen as not being able to cope, being sensitive or needing to 'buck up' and 'get on with it'. In fact, you could argue that the world has gone from being fairly intolerant of it to being hyper aware of it.


Dr Tracy Dennis-Tiwary is an expert on the subject and has written an excellent book Future Tense: Why Anxiety is Good for You (even though it feels bad) and it makes an excellent case for reframing your anxiety so you can use it to your advantage.
