Description
The worry-free life doesn't exist. Everyone, even the most calm, confident and enlightened among us, worries. Although worry can be good, warning us that we are in danger, persistent worry is harmful for virtually every system in the body. It also holds us back from achieving our true potential by putting the brakes on change. By confronting our fear head on, we are shown how it can be managed, controlled and, above all, transformed into a positive force. If we can learn to manage worry, it can become the root of all good, rather than the root of all evil - we can gain confidence in our abilities and fulfillment in our lives. It sounds like positive thinking. It really is about positive doing - positive living. That skill can reduce our mountains to molehills and change our lives for the better forever. Other books by Theresa Francis-Cheung Self-esteem - The Lazy Person's Guide Stress - The Lazy Person's Guide.
