"Worry Medicine: A Companion for Troubled Times", by Nina Montenegro, is a 40 page booklet in color and black and white illustrations.

The deep revolutions needed in our culture; societal reimagining and healing, will ask tremendous amounts of courage, creativity, and energy from each of us in our lifetimes. When stuck in a perpetual state of fear and anxiety, we find that our reserves are low, and we crave stability and sameness, not leaps of faith and transformation. With a preoccupied and exhausted mind there is hardly room for the creative dreaming needed to bring about a more beautiful world or the stamina to do the work of building it.

In this little book, I outline seventeen touchstone practices to observe our anxiety, collaborate with it, see it as a teacher, and transform it. These pages are about cultivating a crucial skillset for collective preservation in a landscape of intense fear and anxiety. It helped me work through my own anxiety to make it. I hope it will help to guide you as you navigate your own relationship to anxiety in troubled times.
