Moterys, kurios nerimauja per stipriai

by Holly Hazlett-Stevens, Aistė Diržytė (Translator)

Nuolat galvojate apie dalykus, kurie vargu ar nutiks?
Jūsų polinkis nerimauti ima kenkti darbui ir santykiams su kitais žmonėmis?
Niekaip nenutildote įkyrios minties „o kas, jei...“?

Jei taip - gali būti, kad esate linkusi nerimauti pernelyg stipriai. Daugybė moterų taip jaučiasi, tad Jūs - ne viena. Tyrimai rodo, kad dėl įvairiausių psichologinių, socialinių ir net biologinių faktorių, moterys yra linkusios nerimauti daugiau ir dažniau nei vyrai. Ir visgi, nepaisant to, kad nerimauti - natūralu, rūpestis ir nerimas neturėtų kelti problemų. Pernelyg stiprų nerimą galite įveikti, jei tik pasinaudosite reikiama informacija ir gerais patarimais.

Nevados universiteto psichologijos docentė dr. Holly Hazlett-Stevens savo knygoje nagrinėja nerimo esmę: kas yra nerimas, kuo jis skiriasi nuo susirūpinimo ir kaip jis gali virsti lėtine būsena.

Knygoje pateikiamos strategijos nerimui įveikti, informacija ir pratimai yra pagrįsti daugelio autorių moksliniais tyrimais, klinikine patirtimi ir teoriniais darbais.

کتاب بسیار ساده ای بود. به همین دلیل روایت آن به سرعت پیش می رفت. تمام مطالب آن را قبلا در کتاب های دیگر ان به صورت جامع تر خوانده بودم. کسانی چون کریشنا مورتی و آلن دوباتن و...!با این حال از نکات جالب کتاب...مواجه با هراس ها و دقیق شدن روی لحظه اکنون بود. در قسمت مواجه با هراس ها، نویسنده معتقد بود که از دیدن فیلم های وحشت خودداری نکنین😂😂تمرینات بعد از پایان هر فصل نیز جالب بود البته تکراری... اینکه چگونه بدن را آرام کنیم و به خودمان آرامش دهیم. آرمیدگی ذهن و جسم توامان ...

This book was super eye opening and helpful for me. I read through it quickly and am now going back through to actual practice what it teaches.

If you worry or have anxious thoughts that lead to worry spirals - read this!

I didn't know what to expect when I first picked up "Women Who Worry to Much" but I honestly thought there would be real-life examples to illustrate the points and tips the author presents in the work. Though Hazlett-Stevens provided some interesting insight into what "worry" actually is as well as some great tips for handling out-of-control worry, I felt that these points could have been flushed out more had she taken the trouble to provide more examples. As a reader, I find I absorb the content of a self-help book easily if the author presents examples I can relate to my own life. Hazlett-Stevens attempted a few examples, but they seemed like last-minute add-ons and weren't flushed out enough to become relevant to the material presented.

Though this was an easy read, I was a little disappointed in the content. Yes, there are ways to scale back your worry, but the author relies on ONLY the five ways she presents early on in the book. And she tries very hard to make those five steps relevant to every situation she provides as examples of where worry can affect your life; sadly, those five steps aren't always applicable, no matter how hard you try to make them fit.

However, some of the advice provided was helpful and I really enjoyed the introduction explaining the difference between worry, anxiety and panic. I expected more though and I was left wanting.

Not a huge fan of this one - as a Type A/sometimes OCD person, I was hoping this book would help me let go of some of that. But, not so much. I guess the premises were ok, but nothing earth shattering here.

[Čitaj, Selma]

čini mi se da je ova knjiga kod nas prošla “ispod radara” sto je šteta jer je svakako vrijedna čitanja i potpuno stručna a lako čitljiva

[earthshattering]

This was an interesting book, but I am only giving it 4 stars because it is short and too readable. A little fluffy. Not very dense. My favorite thing about the book was that it recognized and brought to light common worry patterns of imagining the very worst thing that could happen and focusing on that result. The suggestions were to get specific, find alternatives, look at evidence, think about the worst thing that could happen, and look for new perspectives. This isn't necessarily just for women, I don't think worry is a gender specific problem. I am sure a lot of men worry about their career and work achievements.

This book was actually amazing. With every turn of the page I found myself thinking “hey I can relate to this AND use this information”. This was such an easy read, not too many academic words to make it overly complicated but just the right amount with very clear explanations of certain phrases or words like (CBT: cognitive behavioral therapy) which is good for readers who are unfamiliar with those terms. This is the type of book I can find myself flipping through to remind myself of some of the methods discussed that were helpful. Highly recommend to anyone with anxiety or who worries a lot, not just women.

[Kendall Hampton]

A little outdated, research and science-wise, but what more can you expect from a twenty-year old book? I've read a lot of "self-help" books, and this one really is the picture that gives that genre a bad name. It was laden with tropes and cliches, as well as redundancy and problematic ideals about gender and stereotypes.

Oh well, glad I can finally check it off my TBR.

[Ashley]

loved it

[Jessica]

This book was very helpful with reframing worry. I'll be starting a journal very soon, with what I learned from this book.

[helluolibrorum]

3/5
szybka i prosta książka skierowana do kobiet, która tłumaczy zdolności tej płci do większego zamartwiania się, a także udowadnia to badaniami

[world.of.wonder.books]

This was a great self-help book with tips on how to relax when you are worried, examples and techniques. Even if the book talks about woman specifically everyone would be able to learn from it.

[Lesley Albers]

At the end of each self-help book I always ask myself one question. Was I able to take anything away from this book. My answer was ehhh, maybe one or two things but they were things I already had known and she just reminded me. I felt the whole book just showed examples of how women worry and how they try to figure it out. It seemed that this book was going to be how to STOP worrying and why do we do it. Oh well...I'll just take the reminders that I did learn and move on. Proud of myself for not giving up.

[Brittany]

Maybe more of a 4 1/2. Very enlightening and helpful book. I think I'm probably not as bad off as some people because just reading about ways to stop worrying so much was enough to help me to see things with a better perspective. I don't have tons of time at the moment to do everything the book suggests, but it's something I'll definitely keep in mind and remember when my worry spirals out of control!

[Virginia]

I've learned that I am hypervigilant. That's about it.

[Sarah Mae]

Going to re-read this and actually start doing the exercises.

[Alexis]

Only of marginal use to me, since I don't suffer from anxiety or panic disorder, phobias or extreme shyness. Still, there were some good tools on how to manage worry and I did learn a few things.

[Cindy Digman]

It was very helpful for my GAD. very good technics.

[Candace]

It was a nice review for me of Cognitive Behavior Therapy.

[Kim Potts]

Not what I was looking for.
