Anxiety Solutions

Everyone experiences anxiety from time to time, but having a set of tried-and-true strategies for naming and managing anxious thoughts and feelings, like the ones in Anxiety Solutions, can make a huge difference.

Anxiety Solutions includes 50 clinically proven strategies and techniques, based on mindfulness, brain research, positive psychology, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and solution-focused brief therapy. Designed to help people of all ages, each card features a unique design and coping strategy so people can choose an approach that is right for them.

Anxiety is the most common mental health condition in Australia. Anxiety Solutions can help people explore the things that are causing them anxiety, including family challenges, relationships, work, health, grief, change, body image, addiction, and much more.

Ideal for therapeutic settings, social work and education.

• Personal: Choose some strategies you can do everyday … while waiting in line, driving in traffic, or in difficult social situations.
• Classrooms or social work: Encourage people to try the different strategies and give each one a ‘calm rating’ between 1 and 10.
• School wellbeing counsellors: Use the cards to help students build strategies for dealing with exams, social anxiety and other life stresses.
• Therapeutic settings: Invite people to choose a card and try that strategy once a day for a week. Ask them to note when and where they used the strategy each day, and what effect it had on their mind and body (keeping a journal can be helpful).
