How to Live in Fear - Mastering the Art of Freaking Out by Lance Hahn book review

Have you ever known someone that suffers from anxiety?  I believe we all have occasions when things can get out of control and cause a great deal of stress.  People that suffer from anxiety disorders have trouble with processing the stress and allowing the situation to be processed.  I have friends and family that suffer from this kind of disorder and so found this book, "How to live iin Fear - Mastering the Art of Freaking Out by Lance Hahn very helpful.  Here are my Highlights: 

I was taken with her openness and transparency as she poured out her heart to me.

First, top finds can indeed be found in the most dark and obscure places.  Second, transparency and honesty reveal what is often hidden away in casual conversation.  Our fears should not serve as walls of shame; rather, they are bridges that connect all of our stories. - Parnell M. Lovelace Jr. MSW, DMin

My hope is that five things will happen in your own heart as you read:

Depression might take a parent away from the family room and leave that mom or dad alone in a darkened bedroom, so too does anxiety remove us from being emotionally present.

A wise person once said, "Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened." If you have a pet close to your heart, you know that full well.

Throughout the story are his life history and the lessons he has learned.

High Functioning Minds

People with high-functioning minds often look at life through telescopes and microscopes, so to speak, rather than their own set of eyes.

Book Summary:

Find freedom in an age of anxiety.

Let’s face it: we are afraid. Our world is riddled with fear-inducing headlines, financial meltdowns, family crises, and phobias of every stripe. No wonder the New York Times now reports one in ten Americans is now taking antidepressant or anxiety medication. So how do we cope or even succeed in a world spinning out of control? As someone who has battled panic attacks and anxiety most of his life, Lance Hahn can relate.

In How to Live in Fear, Lance tackles the pervasive problem of fear and panic head-on by inviting readers into his world. In this genuine and practical book, he invites readers into the life of a pastor living with anxiety disorder. Through humorous personal stories—like losing it on an airplane or collapsing onstage as he is about to preach—Lance will win over readers with his transparency. He will also share the remedies that have helped him recover and overcome throughout the years.

How to Live in Fear is a public intervention of sorts. We need to talk about this issue, especially the church-at-large. Millions of people suffer from anxiety disorders, and the church has done little to make them feel normal. Many Christians now take medication privately but keep it a secret under the shame of being viewed as a failure. Lance willingly bares his soul in order to get the conversation started. He firmly believes the church should not only recognize the issue, but also help believers reconcile the guilt of being a Christian while dealing with dread and anxiety

Filled with practical tips and advice, and full of relevant scriptures, How to Live in Fear gives readers the tools to relax in the face of fear—real or imagined. Lance will show readers that while he may still encounter bouts of panic, he has never let his disorder stop him from living a full life.

How Do You Get Your Kids to Try Something New

How do you get your kids to try something new?  You make it a learning experience!  I recently was given the opportunity to review Dermagist and was thrilled that my son Nathan would be able to try the product.  He is 13 and we are just learning the benefits of using cleansers and skincare treatments to keep the skin clean and healthy.  Our Pediatrician told us when we went for his annual checkup that a diet high in fruits and less fast food would also be beneficial.  

Nathan reads the benefits of Dermagist

We received the Clarifying System for Acne Prone Skin.

Nathan is happy to give it a try!

We've used the Dermagist for over two weeks now and I see a great improvement in Nathan's skin. I'm glad to say it's now a routine for him to care for his skin.  I don't have to remind him and the Dermagist system is easy to follow. Since we like the system we thought it would be nice to offer another giveaway this month.  Enter to win your own via our rafflecopter below...

  BabySpa® was inspired by therapeutic spa cultures, ancient healing traditions and luxurious body care rituals. 

At BabySpa®, they believe natural skin protection and nourishment is especially important as babies grow and are exposed to different surroundings. They also believe in pampering our children with happy feel-good aromas and vitamin rich ingredients that provide truly therapeutic spa experiences, ones that we would even love to use on ourselves! 

BabySpa® offers the world’s first stepwise approach to baby skin care with a “stages” system that targets the changing skin care needs of infants and toddlers as they grow and experience different environmental elements.

Stage Two Products are formulated for walkers through preschoolers, providing proper moisture, long lasting hydration and natural protection from UV rays and changing climatic conditions that affect the skin. The uplifting citrus scent in Stage Two products is age appropriate and perfect for those exploring toddlers on the run.
