Have you felt anxiety lately? Do you realize anxiety is your most authentic emotion regarding truth in the moment?

The simple truth is, when you experience anxiety you have unanswered questions. Anxiety is born when we don’t know what’s happening and want to. Or we have a question and we’re afraid to ask it.

In today’s podcast Christine joins me in an unplanned, unscripted conversation. Not one word we had planned to discuss was uttered toward the mic.

Instead our conversation turn from our preliminary chitchat, into a vulnerable and honest conversation about anxiety and compassion. It was such a juicy conversation it’s been broken into two podcasts.

Today’s show, Part 1 of Finding Compassion in the Fires of Anxiety, you’ll be dropped into the middle of our conversation. Part way through, I’ll take you and Christine through a meditative practice, which can help settle your anxiety, giving your mind and heart time to relax and expand.

Perhaps you’ll find yourself brave enough to ask those unanswered questions. For the only way a question can truly remain unsolved and unanswered is if the question is never asked.

Listen to your anxiety. It has the power to point you toward a direction of personal evolution, instead of a body rattling, I-want-to-go-hide-in-the-closet experience.

Let the force of peace be with you even in uncertain moments. Peace and compassion are within us always, somewhere. You’ll find a pdf of the Meditation on my website https://www.laurakamm.com/show-note-episode-007
