Understanding Anxiety
Anxiety is a normal human emotion. Some amount of anxiety is actually healthy, because it helps motivate and energize us to do things that help our survival.
Anxiety becomes a problem when it becomes disproportionate to the situation and starts interfering with life. People experience symptoms like racing worry thoughts, physical tension, elevated heart rate, nausea, feeling hot or cold, sleep problems, and avoidance of triggers.
For people with a genetic predisposition to anxiety, their anxiety might evolve over time. They may even meet criteria for different anxiety disorders at different times.
Anxiety can be absolutely debilitating, but it is also very treatable.
Imagine if you could…
Learn tools to soothe your nervous system
Cope with the worry thoughts, instead of getting stuck in them
Do the things that matter, even if they make you nervous
Use anxiety strategically as a tool to motivate
