Today’s world is more challenging and overwhelming than ever before.
If you experience Anxiety or Depression, you’re not alone. New research reveals that over 1 in 3 adults have experienced symptoms of Anxiety and/or Depression in the past 12 months.1
Although these conditions are treatable, only 37% of those afflicted have sought help.2
The good news is there are scientifically proven skills, tools, and practices you can learn to help manage Anxiety and Depression when they arise. While we tend to shut down or disengage during periods of difficulty, being present and aware of your experience can actually empower you to meet challenges head-on with clarity and intention. MAPs for Anxiety and Depression will teach you how.
