Have you ever felt like you have anxiety but don’t know how to reduce its presence in the moments when it’s overwhelming you? If so, you are not alone and in today’s episode Quinn teaches listeners that there is hope for utilizing your body to help calm and ground yourself in those anxious moments.

In the episode, Quinn teaches listeners:

  • One thought that is important for fighting back against anxiety
  • Three senses you can focus on to ground yourself in an anxious moment
  • One physical moment you can engage in to release dopamine in the brain
  • Mind Renewal Tip:

    Anxiety often comes from feeling like you don’t know your purpose or believing that having anxiety has become your only purpose. But as believers, we have the hope that our purpose is so much greater than our circumstances.

    Scripture Renewal Tip:

    If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing. 1 Corinthians 13: 1-3
