Description
When you're struggling with anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem, just keeping your emotions in check seems like a full-time job. Yet, what may hold you back in life even more are your survival patterns. Have you ever wondered why you make yourself invisible, procrastinate, or please others to get their approval? Our subconscious employs survival patterns like these to protect us from rejection, failure, and hurt. However, living in subconscious "survival mode" has significant downsides: when we live "just to survive," we become disconnected from our true selves and our innate ability to live an empowered life of purpose, fulfilment, and self-reliant confidence.
In this step-by-step guide, Friedemann Schaub, M.D., Ph.D., explores how to break free from the six most common survival patterns--the victim, the invisible, the procrastinator, the chameleon, the helper, and the lover--by engaging the part of the mind that created them in the first place: the subconscious. Providing research-backed insights and brain-rewiring methods based on his 20 years' experience, Dr. Friedemann details how, through activating the healing power of the subconscious, you can throw off the shackles of these self-sabotaging patterns and "flip" them into the six keys to self-empowerment, allowing you to take self-reliant ownership of your life.
Revealing how to work with the subconscious mind and become the leader of your life, the author details how to free yourself from living in survival mode, learn to love and accept yourself, and make authenticity and confidence your everyday way of being.

"So many of us are looking for answers to help with anxiety, poor self-esteem, lack of confidence, insomnia, and countless other issues. Many of these issues stem from stories never told or beliefs that are not founded in reality.

"Living in survival mode makes us feel anxious and powerless. Dr. Schaub's book will show you how to get through survival mode and come out on the other side. The Empowerment Solution puts you on a path of self-exploration to learn how to own your energy and life again. This very helpful guide not only provides practical and powerful steps for how to regain your power but also shares real-life examples from Dr. Schaub and his clients in stories that we can all identify with. Dive into this book, implement the exercises, and on the way discover how effortlessly you can become empowered." * Dr. Maya Novak, mindful healing expert and author of Heal Beyond Expectations *
"The Empowerment Solution is such an insightful book. A light went off inside when I learned about anxiety being an inner compass that alerts us when we're off our path. It makes perfect sense. I also found the chapter "Self-Compassion: The Key to Owning Your Hidden Gifts" very moving and profound. It truly helped me connect to the scared little boy in me. I lost my dad to cancer and that loss would've been much, much harder for me had I not connected those fears into strengths. Dr. Friedemann and this book helped me do that." * Maurice Benard, Daytime Emmy Award-winning actor on General Hospital, author of the New York T *
"In this insightful and helpful book, Dr. Schaub offers far more than the standard techniques for dealing with fear and anxiety. He goes deeper and gets at the real causes of our discontent. Most importantly, Schaub provides solutions that reconnect us with ourselves, our power, and our fundamental ground." * Nancy Colier, author of The Emotionally Exhausted Woman and Can't Stop Thinking *
