Publisher's Synopsis
These Three Words: The Journal is a thought-provoking and hands-on workbook, combining a series of practical exercises and tools designed to assist teenagers who are struggling with the symptoms of anxiety. Addressing the anxious responses in both brain and body, this journal provides the reader with the opportunity to discover therapeutic coping techniques and learn how to apply them to their own personal problem areas, before committing to a twenty-eight-day practice to promote good emotional regulation and reduced anxiety. The book opens with a helpful explanation of what anxiety is and why it happens, then each coping technique is fully described and the reader is encouraged to try them all out and find which work best for them. Space is given for personal reflection, notes and doodles, to aid the reader as they come to understand themselves and their anxiety better. A full twenty-eight page journal is provided at the end of the book, with lots of helpful prompts to aid the reader in navigating a month of everyday life, with the aim of managing and reducing their anxiety using the tools they have learned. The journal can be used alongside the therapeutic novel These Three Words, or as a standalone workbook, and it is suitable for use by the teenage reader on their own, with a parent, or in a group.
