__________ If you have anxiety, this book is for you. If you love someone who is anxious, this book is for you. Sarah Wilson understands what it's like to live through high anxiety, managing bipolar, OCD and several suicide attempts throughout her life. Eventually, she grew tired of seeing anxiety as a disease that must be medicated into submission. Could anxiety be reimagined as a thing of beauty? So began a seven-year journey to find a more meaningful and helpful take on anxiety. Living out of two suitcases, Sarah travelled the world, meeting with His Holiness The Dalai Lama, with Oprah's life coach, with major mental health organizations and hundreds of others in a quest to unravel the knotted ball of wool that is the anxious condition. She emerged with the very best philosophy, science and hacks for thriving with the beast. First, We Make the Beast Beautiful is a book with a big heart, paving the way for richer, kinder and wiser conversations about anxiety.
