UP SET YOURSELF: 9 Steps to Heal from Anxiety, Pain, and Self-Loss
By Shishir Pradhan
You’re not broken — you’re divided.
And it’s time to bring yourself back together.
In a world obsessed with “positive thinking” and surface-level self-help, UP SET YOURSELF goes deeper — into the quiet war between your Shadow (the anxious, fearful critic within) and your Self (the calm, wise core you’ve forgotten how to hear).
Author Shishir Pradhan doesn’t preach from a pedestal. He speaks from the trenches of lived experience — a decade of battling chronic anxiety, burnout, and self-doubt — and reveals the exact system that transformed his pain into peace.
Through nine practical, life-changing steps, this book will teach you how to:
Witness your anxiety without being consumed by it.
Let go of the fight against fear and allow healing to flow naturally.
Unmask the toxic Inner Critic that keeps you stuck in self-blame.
Anchor your Self in the body, turning awareness into stability.
Transform old emotional wounds into fuel for confidence and purpose.
Integrate your light and dark sides into one powerful, whole being.
Build boundaries, balance, and resilience that last a lifetime.
Each chapter blends science, spirituality, and story, weaving powerful insights with grounded, daily practices — breathing rituals, journaling prompts, and real-life reflections — so you don’t just read healing, you experience it.
This isn’t a book about “getting rid of” your anxiety. It’s about discovering the calm beneath it. It’s not about chasing perfection — it’s about coming home to your wholeness.
If you’ve ever felt lost, anxious, or disconnected from who you truly are, UP SET YOURSELF will show you the way back — not to a fantasy version of you, but to the real, resilient Self that’s been waiting all along.
