This saga is punctuated by the accounts of three migrants recounting their crossing, as well as a commentary by the artist. An afterword by Mexican journalist Pedro Anza illuminates the issues at stake

'A must-read for anyone who suffers with chronic worry.' – Dr Nicole LePera'Dr Kennedy's message has the potential to transform the way we think about mental health and the role of the body in calming the mind.' – Dr Rangan ChatterjeeAfter years of trying different therapies for his crippling anxiety without success, Dr Russell Kennedy had an epiphany: anxiety does not start in the brain.

Now fully revised and updated, with new material including the Anxiety Toolkit, The Anxiety Prescription blends Dr Kennedy's personal s
