I need urgent help

Side by Side members have been offered exclusive access to A Life Less Anxious, an online course by psychotherapist Owen O’Kane on BBC Maestro.

Across 22 lessons, Owen explores why anxiety arises, how it shapes our thoughts and behaviours, and practical ways to respond to help create lasting change.

The course will explore different forms of anxiety, how it shows up in our body, mind, emotions, and behaviours, and importantly, how to work with, rather than against, your anxious self.

What’s included:
🕛 30 days’ free access
📺 22 video lessons
⬇️ Downloadable course notes you can keep

⚠️ This offer doesn’t endorse the BBC and isn’t designed to treat anxiety. It’s simply an exclusive chance to access a free course about understanding anxiety.
