Looking very simplistically, your brain has only one job, and that is to keep you alive.

Fear, as much as we don’t enjoy it, performs that function as well. It helps us remove ourselves from dangerous situations or not put ourselves into danger in the first place. But often (especially in our modern world) being afraid, or feeling anxious or depressed has nothing to do with dangerous situations. And in these instances, when we’re going through something difficult, it’s so important that we surround ourselves with people who understand us, support us, and can guide us through the jungle of the scary and unknown.

Arianna Gray is one of those people and I’m so glad that our paths crossed in 2016 when we met at a conference in Phoenix, Arizona. I’ve learned a lot from her and I’m sure you’ll discover things that you can implement in your life when you listen to this episode.

With over 20 years of work as a clinical hypnotherapist and mental health professional in addiction treatments, hospices, and family therapy, the life experience that she can share would be vast even before you add in her own personal lessons and the way she walks her talk, which is why I’m very happy we got to have this conversation.

In this wisdom-packed episode, you’ll discover:

  • What to do so that sadness after an injury doesn’t become depression and if it does, how to resolve it.
  • How to quickly pull yourself out of an anxiety attack.
  • Why taking advantage of this experience is so important for living a happy life.
  • Why pain is not the same as suffering.
