Re: Thoughts?
I am convinced that if I stay with the TEA form exercise my old anxiety related problems will never return. I think some people think as soon as they are feeling better after using them they stop and their old anxiety producing way of thinking takes back over. I look at it as it took years to form the bad habits, so the new habits need to be reinforced to stick.

Re: Thoughts?
Oh I found the post and saw the book on the website. Looks like I might have to get it and read it. Lots of ppl say it has helped them! THANKS!
Re: Thoughts?
It's pretty basic stuff but works great if you dedicate yourself to the exercises. Let me know if you have any questions because though the exercises are basic it takes practice to do them well. Good luck!
