Book Reviews of The Mindfulness and Acceptance Workbook for Anxiety: A Guide to Breaking Free from Anxiety, Phobias, and Worry Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
Book Review: a great new work!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great book! I have read a number of the ACT books, and without a doubt this is one of the best to date. Drs. Forsyth & Eifert have done a superb job of making complicated concepts simple yet effectively explained. The exercises are well designed and useful for a variety of problems. The authors write with a rare sense of clarity, expertise and humaneness.
I have used this book as an adjunct to patient care, and have also recommended it to people to use on it's own. The accompanying CD is extremely well done and something of value all by itself. As a psychologist who treats a large number of anxiety disorders, I recommend it highly.

Summary of The Mindfulness and Acceptance Workbook for Anxiety: A Guide to Breaking Free from Anxiety, Phobias, and Worry Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
Anxiety happens. It's not a choice. And attempts to "manage" your thoughts or "get rid" of worry, fear, and panic can leave you feeling frustrated and powerless. But you can take back your life from anxiety without controlling anxious thoughts and feelings. You can stop avoiding anxiety and start showing up to your life. This book will get you started, using a revolutionary new approach called acceptance and commitment therapy, or ACT.The Mindfulness and Acceptance Workbook for Anxiety has one purpose: to help you live better, more fully, more richly. Your life is calling on you to make that choice, and the skills in this workbook can help you make it happen. Find out how your mind can trap you, keeping you stuck and struggling in anxiety and fear. Learn to nurture your capacity for acceptance, mindfulness, kindness, and compassion. Use these qualities to shift your focus away from anxiety and onto what you really want your life to be about. As you do, your life will get bigger as your anxious suffering gets smaller. No matter what kind of anxiety problem you're struggling with, this workbook can guide you toward a more vibrant and purposeful life.
