Rose Van Sickle Author - Peace of Body Peace of Mind


	375,184 Air Miles Ago I Couldn't Even Leave My Home Anxiety and Depression controlled my life In 1980 while living in her native Michigan, VanSickle was plagued with panic attacks and clinical depression, and became virtually housebound. The practical, effective mental fitness techniques described in her book, Peace of Body, Peace of Mind, enabled her to return to school, start a new profession, relocate across the country and ultimately overcome both disorders. VanSickle says: "Decreasing the impact of daily stressors is one of the most critical keys to good mental health."
Today, I *can* do whatever I choose. I am free from inner turmoil. I *live*, not merely exist.
TODAY - Inner struggle, fear and apprehension are strangers!
