Using REBT to Challenge Anxiety – The book teaches how to identify, dispute, and replace irrational thoughts with rational, constructive ones. The ABC Model (Activating event → Belief → Consequence) helps break down anxiety triggers. 4. Practical Coping Strategies – Ellis provides exercises such as cognitive reframing, self-acceptance, mindfulness, and exposure techniques to manage anxious thoughts. 5. Taking Action Against Anxiety – The book encourages proactive behaviors, such as facing fears gradually, tolerating discomfort, and strengthening resilience.
