433 - Anxiety 101

In today’s episode I talk about the basics of anxiety. This is something we've talked about a lot on this show, but the more we understand it and the more tricks and strategies we have to tackle it, the better off I think we are. We will fill in some of our gaps and add a real understanding about what anxiety is, what it does, how our brains are handling it, like what's actually happening up there when we feel anxious and what we can do about.

Key Points:

· What anxiety is

· How it affects us

· How anxiety works in our brains

· What we can do to about anxiety

Notable Quote:

“When you have that feeling of anxiety, it is a surefire sign that you were not living in the present.” – Gregg Clunis
