“Before seeking out professional help, there are things we can do to make seeing a therapist less inevitable. The authors lay a foundation for working on yourself, decreasing the need for professional care. The authors advice can guide you to living a life that has less of a trigger response, allows for more serenity, and lets you live a life that is not bullied by anxiety and overreacting.”

“The authors are master translators of scientific findings into accessible English. They use creative descriptors that subtly shift attitudes, such as the fallible ‘amygdala defense response’ instead of the usual ‘false alarm,’ ‘don’t trust your cortex, thoughts are not truth!’ and ‘there is no such thing as multitasking when it comes to [attentional] focus.’ This book provides a few wise words about both self-regulation and acceptance in a seamless simplicity.”
