Summary of Alice Boyes's The Anxiety Toolkit

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

Book Preview:

#1 Anxiety is an emotional state characterized by feelings of worry, nervousness, and uneasiness. It affects 40 million Americans over the age of 18, and everyday anxiety affects a far greater number.

#2 Anxiety is a variety of symptoms that can affect us physically, emotionally, and cognitively. It is an evolutionary advantage that causes us to pause and scan the environment for threats. When we detect a potential danger, it is not supposed to be easy for us to stop thinking about it.

#3 Managing your anxiety is about navigating your anxiety bottlenecks. These are the five traps that cause you to feel anxious: excessively hesitating before taking action, ruminating and worrying, paralyzing perfectionism, fear of feedback and criticism, and avoidance.

#4 Understanding your nature and accepting it are the keys to overcoming anxiety. You don’t need to change your nature; you just need to understand your thinking style and learn tricks to shift your thoughts and behavior when it’s advantageous to you to do so.
