Book Synopsis



Vivimos en una era de ansiedad. La mayoría asume que la clave para superarla es el pensamiento. Eso funciona durante un tiempo, pero siempre ocurre algo --una noticia angustiante, una emergencia familiar, un correo electrónico irritante-- que nos devuelve directamente al mismo ciclo ansioso del que intentamos escapar.

¿Existe una forma de reducir nuestra ansiedad al instante y que podamos aplicar en cada evento ansioso posterior? La respuesta, según Martha Beck, se encuentra en la capacidad creativa natural de nuestro cerebro.

En Más allá de la ansiedad, Beck explica por qué este malestar se dispara a nuestro alrededor y dentro de nosotros, además muestra que no solo es posible reducir la preocupación, sino también aprovecharla como una fuerza que nos impulse hacia una vida llena de paz, con propósito y alegría. Tomando como base las investigaciones más recientes de la neurociencia y su experiencia como socióloga y coach, explica cómo nuestros cerebros suelen quedar atrapados en una "espiral de ansiedad" un sistema de retroalimentación que puede aumentar la ansiedad de manera indefinida. Para liberarnos de ella, propone activar diferentes áreas de nuestro sistema nervioso: las que involucran la creatividad.

A partir de instrucciones para activar la "espiral de creatividad", Beck nos guía en un proceso que no solo calma la ansiedad, sino que conduce a la resolución innovadora de problemas, el sentido de propósito y una conexión más profunda y alegre con los otros y con el mundo.

Descubrimos que lo opuesto a la ansiedad no es la quietud, sino una forma más serena de vida que nos inspira e invita a relacionarnos con el mundo con mayor profundidad y autenticidad.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

We live in an age of anxiety. Most people assume that the key to overcoming it is thought. That works for a while, but something always happens--distressing news, a family emergency, an irritating email--that brings us right back to the same anxious cycle we are trying to escape.

Is there a way to reduce our anxiety instantly and apply it to every subsequent anxious event? The answer, according to Martha Beck, lies in our brain's natural creative capacity.

In Beyond Anxiety, Beck explains why this discomfort flares up around us and within us, and shows that it is not only possible to reduce worry, but also to harness it as a force that propels us toward a life filled with peace, purpose, and joy. Drawing on the latest neuroscience research and her experience as sociologist and coach, she explains how our brains often get caught in a "spiral of anxiety" a feedback loop that can increase anxiety indefinitely. To free ourselves from it, she proposes activating different areas of our nervous system: those involving creativity.

Using instructions to activate the "spiral of creativity," Beck guides us through a process that not only calms anxiety, but also leads to innovative problem solving, a sense of purpose, and a deeper, more joyful connection with others and the world.

We discover that the opposite of anxiety is not stillness, but a more serene way of life that inspires us and invites us to relate to the world with greater depth and authenticity.
