Anxiety is Really Strange Steve Haines Art by Sophie Standing

January 2018 | £7.99 | 32pp | pb | Rights: French | ISBN-9781848193895 | eISBN-9780857013453

A science-based graphic medicine comic explaining anxiety and how to manage it The science behind anxiety is explained in this engaging and highly original graphic medicine book, with in-depth analysis of where anxiety comes from, what it means for your body, and how to turn it into something positive. The artwork simply and humorously depicts how to alleviate anxiety and take control of its negative symptoms.

“For many of us, anxiety and fear are daily visitors to the mind and body - in this brilliant book, Steve Haines gives us freeing tools to unmask these feelings, and possibly even reduce the causes.

What he offers is apparently simple yet full of depth, with a touch of light-heartedness.”

–Jonathan Sattin, Managing Director, triyoga

French, Korean, Spanish | ISBN9781848192645 | eISBN-9780857012128

A scientifically-based, detailed, and gently humorous graphic book on pain and pain management Understanding pain is a very good way of relieving it. This engaging, funny, and highly original research-based graphic book explains the nature of pain and how you can effectively relieve pain by changing your mind’s habits.

“This seemingly innocuous picture book on pain is so much more. Steve Haines has compiled a brilliant little volume of insights. Its colorful images invoke a playful approach to unlearning old patterns. Its rich scientific information helps disassemble, piece by piece, the way we’ve come to think about pain as a culture. Haines takes the next step, too; he doesn’t leave us wondering what to do next, but offers practical tools we can use to rewire our mind-body response to pain. This tiny book packs a powerful punch!”

–Bo Forbes, Psy.D., psychologist, yoga teacher, and author of Yoga for Emotional Balance
