Your mind isn't broken. It's protecting you — sometimes brilliantly, sometimes badly, and usually running on information that's years out of date.
Drawing on more than thirty years spent physically protecting other people — as an RAF Police dog handler, then with the Metropolitan Police across Diplomatic, Royalty and Parliamentary Protection — and his later work as a Cognitive Hypnotherapist, Andy Whelan turns his attention to a different kind of protection: the one running quietly in your own head.
Through stories that are as funny as they are honest, this book reframes anxiety, panic and overthinking not as flaws to fix, but as an overprotective bodyguard still working from an old script. Each chapter pairs a clear, practical idea with space to work it out for yourself — reflection prompts and short daily practice pages designed to be written in, not just read.
This isn't a book to read once and shelve. It's a book to live in — pick it up, write in the margins, come back to it. Part guide, part workbook, entirely yours.
A paperback workbook designed to be written in.
