Blurb:

Overthinking, ruminating, worrying: bestselling author Gwendoline Smith explains this common form of anxiety and offers helpful advice for overcoming it.
Psychologist Gwendoline Smith explains in clear and accessible language the concepts of positive and negative overthinking, the truth about worry, and how to deal with the “thought viruses” that are holding you back.

She helps you understand what’s going on in your head—using examples, anecdotes, and plenty of humor—and she offers powerful strategies for addressing your issues.

Based on cognitive behavioral theory, this book will help you combat anxious thought patterns in all areas of your life: from your personal life to relationships and work.

My Review:

I listened to the audio version of this helpful little book. Its a quick enough listen at 2 hours and while it doesn’t delve too deeply into helping with the problem of anxiety, it does provide helpful tips on how to manage anxious thoughts based on CBT. I am sensitive to the voices of narrators and that can impact my enjoyment of audio books.

I received an arc of this book via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
