EP 245 - Is Anxiety A Monster That Attacks You And You Can't Control It?

Send in a question or comment via text. How do you see your anxiety? Is anxiety a monster? Is anxiety like a storm or an invading army that comes to get you? Are you powerless over it? Do you feel that you can't resist, stop or control it no matter how hard you try? What if it wasn't a monster attacking from the outside? What if instead you could recognize that you are playing a role, that you have choice, and that you have power in the process? Abandoning the "monster" narrative can be a powerful thing that informs a shift in the way we react to anxiety and fear.
