Manjit Kaur Khalsa

Manjit Kaur Khalsa (Wheelock’82) of Millis, Mass., published The Yoga-CBT Workbook for Anxiety (New Harbinger Publications, 2017), which she cowrote with Julie Greiner-Ferris. The book “addresses anxiety management from a new perspective. Julie and I drew from our many years of clinical practice to create an innovative psychological treatment model called Yoga-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (Y-CBT). The Y-CBT model blends traditional psychotherapy with ancient yogic practice,” Manjit writes. “By addressing both the physical and cognitive (thought) components of anxiety, our research has shown the Y-CBT model to be highly effective in helping people achieve more complete symptom resolution. Our book offers readers the opportunity to work on their symptoms of anxiety in a self-help format.”
