“Worrying is a socially-sanctioned way of describing anxiety.” – Terri Cole
Intro
For the past six months, people have been asking me to do an episode on managing anxiety. We are living in genuinely anxious times, and the real things to be anxious about are not in short supply. So here it is.
For me, anxiety feels like unease. Like I am forgetting something. Like something is wrong, even when I cannot point to what it is.
I have noticed a clear uptick in clients describing this lately, too. Difficulty sleeping, intrusive thoughts, a body that cannot relax, the sense of panic gathering. This is anxiety that interferes with daily life and makes it difficult, or even impossible, to do the things we want to do. If this is you, you are not alone, and there are things that help.
Highlights:
- 4:15 Why now is a particularly anxiety-inducing time
- 5:10 Understand your own downloaded anxiety blueprint
- 10:50 How drugs and alcohol affect your anxiety symptoms
- 14:20 Making an anxiety inventory
- 18:08 Creating mindfulness practices around your anxiety
