"One of the great challenges to reducing anxiety is knowing how to apply what works—taking psychological and spiritual wisdom and practically applying it in your daily life. Jason Cusick takes us on a personal journey, both as student and well-informed teacher, where he accomplishes this difficult, critical task. He breaks down the key components for nonanxious living into relatable, digestible chunks followed by clear action steps, so the helpful principle or strategy can take root in your life. If you suffer from anxiety this is a must-read."
"Anxiety is a crippling state of mind that can separate us from intimacy with God and others. What Jason does so beautifully is give us tools to overcome anxiety without being dismissive, because he's struggled with it as well. You or someone you know faces anxiety regularly—this book is more vital now than ever."

With vulnerability, wisdom, and good humor, he shares with us practical, concrete steps to cope, and more importantly, to thrive in the midst of it.

"Anxiety can be debilitating. Liberation from it can be hard—and often takes time. The Anxiety Field Guide is a focused and practical discussion on how to get away from anxiety that recognizes it versus ending it. It teaches you how to cope with anxiety in healthy ways, including how faith can help you along the way. Take time with this book and it will help you be less anxious with the Lord at your side."
"Those with anxiety, fear, and obsessive thinking often feel so much shame. But we now know that our brains can be retrained and rewired. We can stop blaming ourselves and get healthy! Jason combines his own experience with basic insights on how self-directed neuroplasticity can help you change your brain and find new freedom. Illuminating, practical, and surprisingly entertaining, The Anxiety Field Guide will help you take back control of your life."
