A new book has been penned to offer practical guidance on protecting mental health and turning anxieties into action.

A Guide to Eco-Anxiety, psychoanalyst, Anouchka Grouse, provides practical advice and shows the healing powers of knowing our feelings are justified, educating the young, connecting with the community, taking small steps, not being too hard on yourself and letting in joy.

The guideĀ is the first mainstream manual for coping with the growing pandemic of climate anxiety in a compassionate and proactive manner, outlining a manifesto for action, connection and hope.
