In Stillness Conquer Fear: Overcoming Anxiety Through Meditation

Meyer-Stone Books

Jimmy Candlestick is a modern boy who lives in a high-rise apartment block and whose life is surrounded by electronic gadgetry. It is only when Jimmy falls ill and is whisked away to the country to stay with old Mrs. Fender that he experiences open spaces, fresh air and nature. He is taught to leave behind the tensions of modern living, to go with the flow of real life, to relax and to take control of his response to life. ‘The sooner we permit ourselves ease of mind, the better,’ says Pauline McKinnon. ‘The way to manage the stress that is so common in modern life is by using preventative techniques.’

In these pages I offer you what I have learned about fear and anxiety, how these become disorders, how people’s lives are affected, how to manage symptoms and how to find effective and lasting relief. I present a new edition of this book to mark 25 years since its first publication, 25 years in professional practice and 30-something years’ freedom from the clutches of agoraphobia. Although this book is primarily addressed to adults, anxiety does not differentiate between age groups and many young people are suffering greatly, too. If parents, teachers, counsellors, doctors and other interested adults want to help our young, I believe they may discover some useful clues by reading this book. (Pauline McKinnon from the Introduction) In this totally revised four-part edition of her landmark book, Pauline McKinnon brings her practical, clinical insight as a psychotherapist and her personal understanding from overcoming her own debilitating agoraphobia to all those touched by anxiety in their lives. She writes with compassion and wisdom to explain how to beat anxiety using her beautifully simple method of Stillness Meditation Therapy (SMT™), based on the work of eminent psychiatrist, the late Dr Ainslie Meares. About the author: Melbourne meditation consultant and psychotherapist, Pauline McKinnon specialises in Stillness Meditation Therapy (SMTTM). She also conducts a practitioner training course and is a regular presenter for corporate bodies, community centres, support groups, schools, hospitals and universities.
