About Everything I Wish I'd Known About Anxiety
In her most practical and personal book yet, bestselling author Caroline Foran offers a clear, step-by-step roadmap for moving in the right direction through anxiety – without skipping the essential foundations that make recovery stick.

Part prescriptive guide, part conversation with her past self, this book is designed for anyone struggling with anxiety and feeling worn out by taking the wrong turns. With warmth, wit and signature no-nonsense clarity, Caroline walks readers through 10 powerful, constructive ‘stops’ on the road out of anxiety – from calming your nervous system, reframing your perception of anxiety and making necessary understanding your triggers to making lifestyle shifts and learning the long-haul tools that actually work. You won’t be told to ‘just breathe’. You won’t feel pressure to simply ‘think’ your way out of anxiety.

You’ll also find stories, turning points and real talk from someone who’s been there, along with plenty of expert input. There are no quick fixes here. But there is a path forward, and overcoming the kind of anxiety that’s ‘always there’ is possible. This book takes anxiety out of the driver’s seat and put you back in it.
