Our Review
This practical guide tackles the often-misunderstood phenomenon of anxiety sensitivity, the fear of anxiety's physical symptoms like a racing heart or dizziness. It moves beyond vague advice to offer a clear, science-backed explanation of why these sensations occur and why fearing them creates a debilitating cycle. The book provides concrete tools to help you reinterpret these bodily signals, breaking the link between a physical feeling and a spiral of catastrophic thoughts.
