More than 18 million Americans are depressed. Most don't know it. In life, pain is something inevitable, but suffering is optional.

The National Crime Survey reports that you have an 80 percent chance of experiencing at least one physical attack in your lifetime. The Figgie Report indicates that four out of five Americans "are afraid of being assaulted, robbed, raped, or murdered" and, in a 1995 survey, more than one out of three Americans reported feeling "truly desperate about rising violence." If you are afraid, you are already a victim of violent crime. In How To Be Safe In An Unsafe World , best-selling author and eminent psychiatrist Harold H. Bloomfield, M.D., and Robert K. Cooper, Ph.D., reveal smart, accessible, and statistically proven ways to ensure personal safety in a variety of vulnerable circumstances. Based on the latest scientific research, How To Be Safe In An Unsafe World offers the key to mastering safety intelligence, and shows you how to convert the anxiety you experience when feeling threatened into a perpetual state of heightened awareness, calm energy, and power. This invaluable book shows you how to best exploit a split-second pause at the beginning of every confrontation; how to transform nervous energy into strength; and how to execute two or more de-escalating vocal or physical responses that will free you from predatory harm. How To Be Safe In An Unsafe World demonstrates that it only takes seven seconds for an attacker to size up a potential victim, and that by even changing the way you walk can deter the likelihood of being assaulted. Supported by the latest crime survey findings, Dr. Bloomfield reveals surprising "do's and don'ts" of personal safety that can help steer you clear of harm's way. For instance, statistics show that yelling "Help!" when confronted with danger actually discourages assistance. However, yelling words like "Fire!" will not only distract a mugger or rapist, but will attract the aid of bystanders. How To Be Safe In An Unsafe World also shows you how to ask de-escalating questions (that begin with "when," not "why" or "what") that will help lower the volatility of a conflict rather than raise it. Whether you are engaged with an angry spouse, offensive coworker, mugger, or rapist, this long-overdue book provides proven safety measures to take in the most common harmful scenarios. How To Be Safe In An Unsafe World teaches you why the need to feel safe is even more important than the need to love and be loved. In addition, the book discusses why a constant inner sense of fear, or the resulting chronic hostility, may damage the heart, immune system, or brain, and actually end your life sooner than an assailant's bullet, bomb, or blade. With forewords by Deepak Chopra and John Gray that describe the impact of violence on themselves and their families, How To Be Safe In An Unsafe World prescribes a proven and practical formula for safety that you and your family can use to increase your sense of inner security and external safety from self-defeating cycles of fear and insecurity. How To Be Safe In An Unsafe World is a necessary book for everyone who fears for their safety in a world of increasing peril, unpredictability, and numbing incivility.

More than 65 million Americans suffer from anxiety and insomnia annually, with half experiencing mild to moderate anxiety at some point in their lives. Despite this prevalence, fewer than 25 percent receive adequate help, often resorting to synthetic tranquilizers and sleeping pills. In response, a safe and natural alternative is presented. A leading psychiatrist introduces a revolutionary approach that is medically proven. The text begins with an explanation of anxiety as an exaggerated stress response from the brain's alarm system, detailing its various manifestations, including muscle aches, chronic worry, and insomnia. It offers easy-to-follow exercises and a Natural Self-Healing program for individuals to assess their anxiety levels and identify effective treatments. Many of the best remedies are natural herbs. Research shows that kava can alleviate mild to moderate anxiety without the sedation associated with traditional tranquilizers. Hypericum (Saint-John's-wort) is effective for both mild depression and anxiety, while valerian extract promotes restful sleep without morning grogginess. Ginkgo biloba supports cognitive health in those over 40, and ginsengs and ashwaganda strengthen the nervous system. Lavender oil is used in hospitals for calming patients, and evening primrose oil can aid in treating Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD). Recommended dosages for herbal extracts are included.
