Millions of children suffer from anxiety, and recent research has uncovered a link between highly imaginative children and anxiety. Using engaging illustrations and fun activities based in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)—one of the most widely used forms of therapy today—this workbook presents a unique approach to help children ages 5-11 harness the power of their imaginations to reduce anxiety, build self-esteem, and develop a positive mindset. Designed to help children understand their anxious thoughts within a positive framework, this method focuses on imagination training and developing skills like problem solving, assertiveness, positive thinking, body awareness, relaxation, and mindfulness.
