The Dance of Fear : Rising Above the Anxiety, Fear, and Shame to Be Your Best and Bravest Self 
imageby Harriet Lerner, PhD.

"No-one signs up for anxiety, fear and shame, but we can't avoid them, either. The more we can look these emotions in the eye, with patience and curiosity, and the more we learn to spot their wisdom and mischief, the less grip they have on us… we can live more fully in the present and move into the future with courage, clarity, humour and hope."

We learn:
How a man was “cured in a day” of the fear of rejection - and what we can learn from his story.
How the author overcame her dread of public speaking when her worst fears happened.
How to deal with the fear of not being good enough, and the shame of feeling essentially flawed and inadequate.
How to stay calm and clear in an anxious, crazy workplace.
How to manage fear and despair when life sends a crash course in illness, vulnerability and loss.
How “positive thinking” helps - and harms
How to be our best and bravest selves, even when we are terrified and we have internalized the shaming messages of others.
