Synopsis:

Journey to Peace is a twelve-step program with tried and true methods for reducing symptoms of anxiety, panic, and everyday stress.  Success in this program, like any other, is best achieved with the guidance and support of a health care professional.    

This is not a prescription to follow exactly. It is not necessary for the reader to implement every piece of advice or even complete each step. Instead, readers are encouraged to take what works for them and apply in ways that reap the most benefits.

In addition to the twelve steps, this book offers cognitive behavioral techniques that will help to reduce stress and promote relaxation.  These techniques can be found at the end of the book, immediately following the twelve steps. 

Book Excerpt:

Many books have been written on the subjects of anxiety and panic.  Members of the medical profession have written most of them.  The information obtained from these books is educational, informative, and stems from years of study, research and medical practice methodology.

Journey to Peace takes an entirely different approach.  Written by a lay person with years of experience in dealing with anxiety, it is intended to show a clearer perspective.

Readers will not find an in-depth definition or explanation of these conditions.  Instead, practical steps to deal with anxiety are presented in a clear, concise, easy to read format. 

These twelve steps took shape through many years of practicing different techniques, reading about and studying the subject, and personal experiences of the author.  Each of these steps plays a role in reducing the physical, mental, and emotional effects of stress, anxiety, and panic.

This book is written to reach out and help others that experience symptoms of anxiety and panic.  It is my greatest expectation that this book has come to fruition in order to reach those that will benefit from it the most.  

I sincerely hope that the practice of these twelve steps will provide some guidance and relief.  Godspeed as you embark on this

journey to peace.  You may begin your journey now.
