Learn how to manage anxiety with the simple mindfulness techniques provided in this free online mental health course.

‘Anxiety’ is a feeling of worry, nervousness or unease, typically about a specific imminent event or situation with an uncertain outcome. It’s normal and healthy to feel anxious when faced with a challenging situation like a job interview, tough exam or first date. However, some people experience anxiety as a psychological disorder on a daily basis, even when there’s nothing to be worried about, which impacts their mental health and wellbeing. For such people, anxiety is a constant and overwhelming feeling that can interfere with their everyday life.

This self-improvement course on anxiety management offers a chance to pursue your personal development and teaches you how to manage the symptoms of anxiety disorder.
