Another great resource for facilitating personal transformation and overcoming anxiety, anger and other forms of emotional stress is mindfulness. I also recommend 'The Path of Mindfulness Meditation' available through Amazon. Rating: 4 / 5 This book is a good resource for those struggling with anxiety and depression.

I have been struggling with all the issues addressed in the book for many years and "Fear and Other Univited Guests" really helped me see my fears and anxieties in a new way. I really like the way Dr. Lerner weaves in personal experiences and light-hearted stories into a book about very serious issues. I highly recommend it!

Unfortunately, the author narrates her book which I think is a big mistake. She has a very distracting accent and reading style. It doesn't help that she begins the first chapter by giving us a detailed description of the daily activities of her cat. After tolerating about two and a half minutes of this, I skipped to the next track. That was about 9/11. I don't have any fear or anxieties about terrorism so I skipped to the next track. The subject matter sounded interdesting but again, I just couldn't get past her accent. <br /> <br />I really think that unless authors are good speakers, they should leave the narrations to trained professionals.
