Ep #3: How to Conquer Anxiety
Anxiety is an incredibly common concern amongst us bipeds. In fact, in the early days of humankind, it was an important tool our brains used to keep us alive (think: lion = RUN!).
While the majority of us no longer face those same dangers on a daily basis, our brains are now reacting to dangers that are more imagined than real. So, how do we very graciously thank our anxiety for protecting our ancestors throughout history and for protecting us from some of the legitimate dangers we may have faced? I’m going to show you how on today’s episode.
Anxiety is an exhausting life-stealer. It can feel like a wall between you, the people you love, and the life you want to live, but it doesn’t have to be that way. I’ll explain the science of anxiety and what’s happening in your brain when you feel that rush of tension in your body and I’ll teach you simple, actionable, practical tools to shift both body and mind using science-based cognitive behavioral thought work.
