ZEN & THE ART OF THE WALK
By Coach Cary Bayer

Agoraphobia has been often misinterpreted as a fear of open spaces. In real it is a type of anxiety related disorder. It is termed as Agoraphobia because the fear experienced by the patient is associated with situations that are not in control and provides absolutely no place for escaping. This ultimately leads to a patient holding up on a secure space such as their home. The misconception of fear related to markets and open spaces has been highlighted.
