Audiobooks
This work aims to set us free from fear. Over the last 500 years, life for the average human being has changed dramatically - plagues no longer wipe out entire families, and no longer do we empty our chamber pots into the street. But, western progress has shown that no matter how many dangers we neutralize, new ones emerge. Now we remain at the mercy of an invisible enemy - fear. Our wellbeing suffers and our imaginations are stifled. But why? Safety not guaranteed. For years clinical psychologist Dr Frank Faranda, observed a state of fearfulness in his patients - a primordial emotion that relentlessly drives us toward avoidance, alienation, hypercriticism, hyper-control, narcissism and eventually, depression and anxiety. He began to wonder how embedded these fears might be in contemporary society.
