Now, for this week's episode of The Transforming Anxiety Podcast, we're talking about anxiety, specifically how anxiety is okay.
Because there's an underlying assumption that anxiety is bad, that it's something to be avoided, that we need to resist it. This is how we react to it. Even in our conversations about transforming anxiety, there's the unspoken idea that we'd want to because: anxiety = bad.
So this week, let's talk about it. Is anxiety all bad? Can it be okay? How else can we think about anxiety?
We're going to explore:
The fight-or-flight stress response
The rest-and-digest relaxation response
The excite-and-delight challenge response
The tend-and-befriend bonding response
There's more than one way to go about this. And I want to invite you to consider that anxiety as we know it is only one option...
