{"product_id":"book-aveu","title":"One Less Thing to Worry About","description":"When it comes to having anxiety, women outnumber men two to one. Fluctuations in  levels of estrogen and other hormones, as well as physiological factors unique to  women, seem to cause us not only to experience anxiety differently at different times  in our lives, but also to worry about different things in different ways. Now a pioneer  in the field presents a new perspective on the way women worry, showing that anxiety  isn’t something that just happens to us, but rather something that involves action  and reaction–something with which we have a relationship–and that we can learn to  manage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Anxiety can be friend or foe: it can keep us out of trouble or keep us chronically  on edge. Normal, healthy worry reminds us to pay our taxes, see a doctor when we’ re feeling sick, and lock the doors at night. But when worry escalates into chronic  anxiety, keeping us from fully living our lives, it’s time to assess the kind of  relationship we have with our anxiety and take action to change it. In this practical  and lively guide, Jerilyn Ross presents stories of women who did just that and introduces  the Ross Prescription–a set of innovative tools and techniques that you can use to  do it, too. It includes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e • questionnaires to help you determine whether what you’ re experiencing is normal, everyday worry or if it is perhaps symptomatic of an anxiety  disorder\u003cbr\u003e • strategies for identifying how you relate to your anxiety: Do you act  impulsively to ease it? Adhere to regimens of obsessive behavior to control it? Or  avoid and run away from it?\u003cbr\u003e • tips for locating your position on the anxiety spectrum:  Is your worry healthy and helpful, or is it toxic? \u003cbr\u003e • cutting-edge research into  the ways hormones affect when and how a woman experiences and deals with anxiety\u003cbr\u003e • the Eight Points, a set of reliable techniques to help you control anxiety, worry,  and stress in the moment and liberate you from their grip\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e With this book in hand  and the Ross Prescription in mind, you will learn to identify, modify, and redefine  your relationship with worry and anxiety and master simple, effective ways to regain  control of your life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eIncludes a bonus PDF with worksheets and resources\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49339835810096,"sku":"BDaveu","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/171221-aveu-Square.jpg?v=1734031689","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-aveu","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
