The Book of Hope
The Book of Hope — Antidote for Anxiety, reveals that we are more anxious now than ever before. We’ve had to be; it’s how we have survived as a species. Our in-built mechanism of fight or flight has turned into overwhelming anxiety that we soothe, avoid or numb. This book introduces a new concept and mind-set for dealing with anxiety now — hope. We seek a hopeful world but like faith, it needs to be enriched and shared to be cultivated. Hope has countless shapes — an innocent child, an open door, a new book on the bedside, a wallet returned to its owner, a new beginning or a fresh spring day. The Book of Hope will help you to cultivate and foster this hope and re- frame your relationship with anxiety as a gift that can help you to connect with the meaning and purpose of your life. Vicki Bennett is a business woman, trainer, professional speaker, artist and author of 30 books that have been translated into numerous languages. She has worked with some of the Top 200 listed companies in Australia on achieving outcomes, effective communication and leadership. Vicki shares her personal experience with anxiety offering practical tools to reconnect to a hopeful future.
