Review by Mike Sanderson
Charles Linden created The Linden Method as a way to overcome the severe anxiety and panic that he had been suffering from since he was a child. In addition to anxiety and panic attacks Charles also suffered from Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and agoraphobia. He discovered that they all had the same common cause and he was able to eliminate all of his anxiety issues with the method that is now available to everybody called The Linden Method.
The Linden Method has been hugely successful with over 100,000 people having used it to become free of anxiety and panic disorders. The success of The Linden Method has led to Charles Linden becoming a well known authority in the field of anxiety disorders. He is a regular contributor to newspapers and magazines and he has also had his own television series called “Stress Less”. In the UK The Times newspaper awarded his “Stress Free in 30 Days” book their “must read” seal of approval.

The Linden Method is the product of many years research by Charles Linden involving people who had overcome anxiety disorders and how they did it. Charles found that many of these people all told similar stories and it was these similarities that led to the creation of The Linden Method.
Charles discovered that all anxiety disorders have one thing in common and that is they are all caused by the amygdala. The amygdala is a small area of the brain that behaves like an on/off switch that turns anxiety on or off. People experience anxiety disorders as the results of the amygdala switching itself on and getting stuck. The reason why The Linden Method works is because it teaches techniques that result in the amygdala switching itself off. This is the root cause that is behind every single anxiety disorder. This why so many other anxiety treatments fail because they don’t address the root cause of the anxiety. This is the reason for The Linden Methods incredibly high success rate of 96%.
The Linden Method does not involve the usage of any prescription drugs as these simply suppress symptoms instead of resolving the root cause of the problem. One of the first steps in The Linden Method is to come off medication as drugs aren’t doing anything to help you get better. Medication suppresses anxious thoughts and emotions but you need to learn to control your anxiety levels for yourself. There can be no permanent cure for anxiety whilst you try to artificially control how you feel with chemicals. As somebody who always seemed to suffer from side effects to drugs and never got any benefit from them I was pleased that this was covered early on.
Although you may find other anxiety therapies helpful, The Linden Method recommends that you don’t continue to use them as they can distract you. You can’t try one therapy one day and then something else the next. You need to commit yourself to something and allow it time to work. The Linden Method success speaks for itself and that you should give you the encouragement to stick with it until you get results. Don’t give up when it doesn’t work straight away and try something else. All you will end up doing is relying on other peoples and methods as a crutch when you need to be the one responsible for your own recovery.
The Linden Method can be challenging as it requires you to take complete responsibility for overcoming your anxiety and not rely on anybody else’s comfort and reassurances. Friends and family can impede your recovery if you continue to rely on them for support. For this reason Charles’s wife Elizabeth has written a great chapter on how your partner can best help you without impeding your recovery.
The Linden Method will teach you about diversion which is a technique that you can use to divert your attention away from your anxiety and can prevent a panic attack. You will also learn about how your diet affects your anxiety levels and how changing your diet can make you less anxious.
When you consider how different your life is going to be once you have overcome your panic and anxiety the price of The Linden Method seem a very small price to pay. The manual is over 250 pages and is packed with information. You also get videos and audio recordings that include interviews with Charles, breathing and relaxation techniques and meditations.
My experiences using The Linden Method have been remarkable and I would definitely recommend it to anybody else who is currently experiencing panic or anxiety disorders.

Anxiety disorder can lead to serious problems. And worst, suicidal. If they will not conquer it themselves, then who? No one can do it but themselves. While it hasn’t reach the severe level, cure it once and for all. Consult a doctor to avoid problems that may arise.
