About the Book
Using her wonderfully rich and inviting therapeutic voice along with personal memories and examples drawn from her practice, Lerner gives fear, anxiety, and shame their due. With stories that are sometimes hilarious and sometimes heartbreaking, Lerner takes us from "fear-lite" to the most difficult lessons the universe sends us in anxiety, fear, and shame.
No one signs up for anxiety, fear and shame, but we can't avoid them either. The more we can look these emotions in the eye with patience and curiosity, and the more we learn to spot their wisdom and mischief, the less grip they have on us. As we learn to respond to age-old emotions in bold new ays, we can live more courageously in the present and move into the future with clarity, humor, and hope.
