    Are you struggling to trust your partner? 
    Do you constantly live with that sense of insecurity? 
    Are you afraid of being left and does that turn you into a jealous person? 
    Anxiety is a normal human condition and is a necessary part of our lives. We all have a trait of anxiety in one way or another. In "fight-or flight-mode", fear allows us to recognize and respond to hazards. Anxiety will work either for us or against us. It's something that we all share, but it varies from person to person. 
    And what about couples? In the early stages of a relationship, people may get feelings of insecurity, which leads to more anxiety. You may experience worrying thoughts such as, “Does this person really like me?” “How serious is this relationship?” “Will it work out?” On a certain level, consciously or unconsciously, we all fear being hurt. Ironically, this fear tends to increase when we are getting what we want. If a relationship is healthy, we start to fear the “impact of a breakup". Consequently, we start to get defensive, we create distance, and we eventually end the relationship. 
    Thanks to Anxiety in Relationship, you will learn to:Possible causes of anxiety and common symptomsThirteen natural remedies for chronic anxietyConflict-management strategies so that a simple fight doesn't become a reason for a breakupA powerful strategy to overcome the fear of abandonmentFifteen mind-blowing ways to deal with jealousy and negativityThree steps to be more open to listeningSimple ways to build trust and find happinessHow to communicate effectively without letting anxiety speak for youAnd much more! 
    This exclusive book is the only resource you'll ever need to put an end to feelings of insecurity.
