This is a fantastic read if you want to understand not only the why behind why you feel anxious, but more importantly, what you can do about it.
By understanding how the vicious cycle of anxiety can take root, Dr. Brewer does an incredible job of teaching us how we can change our behavioral patterns, particularly through mindfulness and distress tolerance.

From Lauren's list on how to cope and live with anxiety.

You can get the gist from the book, though, at a lower cost: Unwinding Anxiety: New Science Shows How to Break the Cycles of Worry and Fear to Heal Your Mind. In this book, Dr. Brewer explores the ways in which we all create habits around our anxiety — and how to break them down and rebuild them in healthy ways.
