Our throat tightens, we struggle to breathe, our heart races, our skin is beaded with sweat and, all of a sudden, a gnawing, paralysing feeling of anxiety appears in the pit of our stomach and spreads throughout our body. We are immediately overwhelmed and feel that we are no longer in charge of our own body.
All of us are familiar with anxiety and have experienced it at one time or another: it emerges when we have to give a presentation, meet somebody new or deal with an unexpected phone call, or even during harmless everyday events such as nightfall or the silent emptiness of a Sunday afternoon.

However, when this feeling of anxiety becomes constant and intense and starts interfering with your everyday life, it is time to act! Do not let anxiety stop you from thriving. There are a range of simple solutions and tools you can use to halt its far-reaching effects. Whether you are working alone or with the support of others, and at home or within a group, there are plenty of tricks at your disposal.
