Freedom from Nervous Suffering

Extremely helpful

This helped me so much to understand why I was suffering from particular symptoms. Dr Weekes teaches you to loosen and accept so that your nerves can heal. I've never before tried this with great resolve. She is an excellent encourager.

Dr. Weekes is a life-saver. I owe her mine.

Dr Claire Weekes was a woman way before her time. I have listened to her tapes records read her books and now listen to her audiobooks which she narrates. Her voice is soothing and her knowledge extensive and she fights for you and teaches you how to heal yourself. Her wisdom could be applied to a variety of different areas including benzo withdrawal and agoraphobia. I have all three and they helped me so much. God bless you Doctor Weekes.

Great help for anxiety

Helpful with touches of dry humor. Claire Weekes has much to offer an anxious person who is looking for a way out.

4 not 5 only because...

I’m giving it a 4 only because it’s just a audio of her she’s not actually reading the book, still good material and it really helped but again not the book 😑

Gives me Strength and Courage

I am glad I have it. another tool to help me go through the day.

Perfect

Great help for people struggling with anxiety and panic attacks. You can't go wrong here.

Timeless classic for anxiety sufferers

This book is older, but as good as any other material on anxiety recover out there. Claire Weekes was an anxiety sufferer and a doctor. She developed her methods from personal experience. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is stressed or anxious. Reading it can save a lot of unnecessary suffering.

listen,internalize,practice,forget,fail,&repeat

The best part is simply hearing someone speak the words I could never quite find for myself. There is so much value in receiving affirmation, especially in this context!

I often felt as if I could jump and cheer,
"YES! THAT'S IT! That's exactly how it feels!"
I still like to listen to this again every few months or so.

I always pick up something new while reminded of some great Truths I've managed to forget.

Nothing too harsh
or too heavy.

No condescension.
No coddling.

She expertly balances blunt truth with gentle guidance.

No complex psycho-babble.
(the kind that helps their expertiste-ego
more than it helps my progress)

Her "tips" are uncommonly gentle, simplified & manageable.

Not impossibly idealistic.
Not patheticly over-indulging.

Small phrases, Simple words, repeated frequently enough to naturally be memorized without "trying" !!!

No post-it notes all around your house.
No notecards to tote around.

She's also a great narrator - I found her mild accent to be quite endearing. Overall, it feels like a very comfortable conversation with a wise & compassionate advocate.

Now then:

* STOP STRUGGLING *
.... to listen to (read) more lengthy reviews, like mine

* ACCEPT *
.... your excellent decision to listen to (or read) this book!

♡ Thank You ♡
