Showing results for "Tiger! Tiger!" in Anxiety Disorders

Everybody has a tiger. It is the thing that snarls at us when we think about making a change in our lives and stops us developing and achieving our potential. In Taming Tigers Jim Lawless shares his proven and inspirational training program and case studies from people who have changed their lives by following the rules. You'll hear Jim's own experience of grabbing his tiger by the tail, as he went from a 36 year-old, overweight, non-riding consultant to a jockey, and later a UK freediving record holder, in 12 months.

Paper tigers are the thoughts and experiences that conjure up dread, but that don’t present any real danger. Missed deadlines, traffic jams, conflict with a loved one, and arguments with the boss create the same physiological responses in the human body that our ancestors experienced when they were stalked by predators on the plains. The Paper Tiger Syndrome is a guidebook on the journey of healing and self-repair, which demonstrates that the most direct way to overcome fear, stress, and trauma in your life is to regulate your physical body.
