I've been using this book and the ideas in class for mindfulness breaks, and I'm seeing wonderful changes in my students. School pressure can be difficult for students with trauma and anxiety, this book is a tool that's helped me help them during the day

This was an interesting workbook for CBT through yoga. I enjoyed learning these new techniques and applying them to my daily life. Years later I am still using this guide for my personal CBT

This is my favorite book that I've found on NetGalley. In fact, I am so grateful to NetGalley because I might not have found it otherwise. Although I never would have put them together before, but it turns out that Yoga and CBT make perfect allies. This is a wonderful resource for a stressed-out world.

I picked this book up as someone who lives with anxiety (and depression) rather than a therapist. I will admit it was different than I expected, but still helpful. Going into it I had a certain expectation of what constituted yoga and what didn't so while the poses were not necessarily what I would associate with yoga as I know it, I found that when I took a step back and opened my mind I got a lot of value out of this approach.

The book essentially breaks the process down week by week, with each week having a deeper theme or focus. I like that it gives a good bit of detail and background for those of us who need to be convinced before doing, as well as clear visuals of the different poses. I also found that at lot of what was explained jived with things I've learned over the years in therapy for my anxiety so it made me feel confident that this is rooted in not only what will be effective, but complementary to the work I am doing elsewhere.

The one caveat I will say is that this isn't something that can be just read with the expectation of results. As with any workbook you have to do the work to truly get the benefits out of it and that means not just committing time but sometimes experiencing things that may be uncomfortable or feel painful at first.

Would definitely recommend.

This is a wonderful resource.
This book has series of questions which are designed to have the reader get in touch with their mental and physical states. It is quite thorough.
There were many helpful step by step exercises to follow. Photos helped clarify the yoga positions. This book was very well done.

I didn't know what to expect from this book but I ultimately enjoyed the exercises and feel it a great resource for anyone interest in self-care. I found the plans easy to follow and liked how it was structured.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book courtesy of NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I have read many anxiety self-help books, many of which, were based on the Cognitive Behavior Theory. I practice yoga regularly. I’ve tried meditating but have not been very successful sitting still. I found this book very creative and useful bringing yoga and CBT together.

There were many helpful step by step exercises to follow. Photos helped clarify the yoga positions. This book was very well done. I would recommend it to anyone struggling with anxiety.

If you suffer from anxiety and love Yoga this is the book you need. I appreciated that the author had a definitive plan for each reader that includes reducing anxiety symptoms through the therapeutic benefits of Kundalini Yoga. I have found this book to be informative, useful and very good self help took in reducing my stress and anxiety. I highly recommend this book for everyone seeking peace and relief from anxiety.

I found this book to be so helpfull. I like yoga and I have tryed mindfulness. This brilliantly brings them together. Each building exercise helps center you and brings a calming sense to your mind. I like how each layer of lessons ingrain themselves into habit. It makes for a much easier way to cope with this crazy world.

This handbook creates a realistic approach to using yoga to lessen anxiety. The "chapter a week" guide along with simple activities made the information less daunting. I look forward to practicing these activities more and incorporating these techniques into my everyday. Thank you for the advanced copy.

This book is a fantastic resource for yoga teachers and anxiety sufferers alike. It clearly defines each major facet of anxiety, identifies the likely triggers for each, lists the typical mental and physical reactions, and then sets out simple, concrete things anyone can do to combat these and calm the mind and body. Even if you've never tried yoga before, you CAN do these practices: simple movements and stretches, calming breathing techniques, and mindfulness exercises designed to halt the stress response and re-wire your brain's pathways and patterns for the long-term.

This book moves at a good pace and keeps you engaged all the way through. Great detail in explanation of concepts and exersices. Highly recommend.

There are lots of books out there giving you advice and help on anxiety, but this book is a real gem! It doesn't blind you with medical/scientific terms regarding anxiety and CBT, instead it gives you a concise and easy to understand introduction into the different types of anxiety and what CBT actually is and how introducing yoga, you can begin to heal the mind and the body, as anxiety does not just affect your headspace, it affects your body and your general health as all sufferers know. It's explained very well and if you are a sufferer, you sometimes don't have the energy or concentration to read an instructional book like this (even though you know it may help!) but this book kept my interest and followed on to give me a very useful plan of action. There was so much more to this book than I first thought, it is very detailed and like I've mentioned, it does keep its focus and I found it very easy to follow. You don't have to be super fit to practice the yoga, it is very gentle but oh so effective. I've collected quite a few books like this and most I've never finished or not really practised the techniques since the initial read. With this book, I feel I will use it regularly and dip into it often. I wholeheartedly recommend this book if you are an anxiety sufferer or just want to learn to relax better. An extremely useful book!

This book is not for everyone but for those that suffer from any form of anxiety for negative cognitive behaviors this book is geared to them specifically.

Kundalini Yoga is a special type of yoga that is for awareness and helps the yogi achieve their highest potential. This six week program teaches the yogi how to establish a daily practice, working around your anxiety and includes a daily log to track your progress.

The book is attractive, accessible, and useful. I believe both patients and practitioners will profit from the layout and information included in The Yoga-CBT Workbook for Anxiety.

Slowly working through the exercises in the book - I suffer with anxiety and it's nice to find something that is "grounding"

Anxiety is a condition that affects almost everyone at some point. For many, having the condition can be debilitating. Decision-making, social interactions. focusing on tasks, physical pain,almost all aspects of living are affected. Yoga, meditation, and cognitive behavioral therapy are three modalities used to manage anxiety.
This book combines all three in one practicum. How neat is that?
This book has series of questions which are designed to have the reader get in touch with their mental and physical states. Exercises are given, step by step, to help the reader establish their yoga/mindfulness/cbt practice. It is quite thorough.
The authors clearly state that this practice will not substitute for therapy for extreme anxiety cases. It is a good addition and training manual.
I recommend it highly.

I wish I could give this book ten stars! I actually took the time to go through it like you are supposed to, and it has helped me greatly! I will be telling everyone about this book.

As someone who suffers from Anxiety and many who of you will understand that it can take a toll not only one you mind but on your body. I found I would have chest pains shooting painful chest pains that sent me to the hospital at the age of 30 thinking I was having a heart attack only to find out nothing was wrong. Many times have attack I find I am so exhausted I can sleep for days with little to no energy. I found help in medication but it doesn't cure it. It does help control my body and mind.
In the last three years I have been seeking out new ways to find help for my anxiety when I find medication can't control it.
For those who have the patience of a toddler this book will help coming under 200 pages. It starts off with warm ups that work on a persons posture. As you more forward readers will work on exercise Self Compassion which many of is need we just don't want to admit it. The areas are clearly marked tell you steps 1-7 or more on how to control your body and mind.

This is a 6 week program which I hope will help me better control as well as teach my children how to better control the anxiety we each feel.
Thank you to Netgalley for the advance copy
