This book offers you a totally different approach to understanding, handling, and even avoiding anxiety and stress.

It will lead you to do introspection, and question you on most of your current day lifestyles, goals, ambitions, and dreams. It can shake up your 'me-too' attitude to life that everyone seems to take for granted as if it is 'the norm', and ending up with stress and anxieties.


This book draws upon the age-old spiritual wisdom available from India, based on the teachings of Hindu saints and sages. In other words, this book is not meant to offer scientific, modern, or psychiatric solutions.
You may find some shocking realities and revelations about our lives, from angles which many of us don't want to look at! We all want to have more joy in our lives with less pain. This book, with very down-to-earth examples, shows you some practical ways for it.
What we face in our lives leading to anxiety and stress many times don't obviously seem to be connected directly to our omissions and commissions, and this reality troubles many people. Indian faith deals with this question very convincingly through its spiritual concept — Karma and rebirth, which is discussed in detail.

- What are the causes of anxiety?
- What are the evil consequences of anxiety?
- Why Stress? Why and how do we lose peace of mind?
- How to have more joy and less pain in life
- Contentment - the antidote to stressful living

- Japa (Chanting of Mantra) as an effective tool for calming the mind
- A Beginners Guide to Pranayama and Meditation
- The role of Mahatmas and Avatara Purushas in curing anxiety and stress.
In a nutshell, this book is not meant to drive you outward to a Psychiatrist, but to turn you inward. It is meant to help you make a serious attempt for inner transformation, with a clearer spiritual understanding.
