ZOOM

Enjoy a range of talks from bestselling authors and thought leaders. This week, Dr. David H. Rosmarin will discuss how to use anxiety to thrive.

Let’s face it: Everyone has anxiety. Furthermore, our incessant quest to rid ourselves of this ubiquitous human emotion worsens it. What if, instead of fighting our anxiety, we could turn it into a strength? In this enlightening online webinar, you will learn how to use anxiety to become more self-accepting, connected to others, and resilient. Author of Thriving with Anxiety, Dr. Rosmarin’s constructive, compassionate, and evidence-based approach will not make you less anxious. Instead, it will empower you to use anxiety to thrive.

Brought to you in partnership with the Library Speakers Consortium. Visit libraryc.org/cphlibrary for an archive of past webinars and to view upcoming author events.
