SynopsisClimate change is causing widespread devastation, and the scale of necessary change feels overwhelming. How can we avoid descending into hopelessness and despair? Eco-Anxiety is a growing mental health issue that can, if properly harnessed, help us to live more positively and with more purpose. This book shows you you're not alone in your feelings, and helps you find equilibrium - while also firing you up for spreading awareness to create change. It tackles issues such as: why eco-anxiety is a call to arms, and not a "disorder", how can I talk to my children about climate change without freaking them out?, what is more eco-friendly: veganism or avoiding fast fashion? The book cultivates pragmatic hope with a toolkit of practical ways to connect with community, self-care practices to ease the symptoms of anxiety, and strategies to spread awareness and - crucially - bring about change for our one and only beautiful planet. Book jacket., This is the first mainstream book to tackle the growing phenomenon of eco-anxiety. Written by a psychoanalyst, with a foreword from Greenpeace's Ed Gillespie, this book offers emotional tools and strategies to ease anxiety by taking positive action on a personal and community level. A Guide to Eco-Anxiety outlines a manifesto for action, connection and hope. Showing how to harness anxiety for positive action, as well as effective ways to reduce your personal carbon footprint. The most powerful thing we can do to combat climate change is to talk about it and act collectively. But despite it being an emergency, most people don't bring climate change into conversation in everyday life. The book explores the health impact of experiencing eco-anxiety, grief and trauma, and signposts recommended treatments and therapies. It also tackles practical issues such as- why it's important to reduce plastic waste; parenting and the choice to have a family; which is more effective to bring your carbon footprint down, go vegan or fly less? The book will cultivate a pragmatic form of hope by offering a dynamic toolkit packed with practical ways to connect with community and systemic support, self-care practices to ease the symptoms of anxiety, and strategies to spread awareness and - crucially - bring about change., This is the first book to tackle the growing phenomenon of eco-anxiety.
