This book is targeted to an adult audience.

If you have ever been anxious, depressed, or had any negative thoughts, then come along to the book launch to hear about the analogy of the ANTs – (Automatic Negative Thoughts). ANTs - everyone gets them, they are hard to get rid of, and we often don’t notice them until there is a huge pile of black pests hiding all of the good things underneath them.

Sally-Anne will describe some popular strategies to “stomp” out the ANTs, and ways of helping yourself to prevent future infestations!
