The Body Image Workbook

Body Image Workbook

Is fear of social situations keeping you from living the life you want?

There’s nothing wrong with being shy. But if social anxiety keeps you from forming relationships with others, advancing in your education or your career, or carrying on with everyday activities, you may need to confront your fears to live an enjoyable, satisfying life.

This new edition of The Shyness and Social Anxiety Workbook offers a comprehensive program to help you do just that. As you complete the activities in this workbook, you’ll find your strengths and weaknesses with a self-evaluation, learn to explore and examine your fears, create a personalized plan for change, and put your plan into action through gentle and gradual exposure to social situations.

Information about therapy, medications, and other resources is also included. After completing this program, you’ll be well-equipped to make connections with the people around you. Soon, you’ll be on your way to enjoying all the benefits of being actively involved in the social world.
