Understanding Anxiety Reassurance: Break the Cycle for Better Mental Health , Beyond Reassurance Building self confidence & Resilience!

Anxiety can sometimes feel like a heavy cloud hovering over us, especially when it comes to health concerns. One common behavior that many people engage in during these times is reassurance seeking. While it might seem harmless, constantly looking for reassurance can actually reinforce our fears, keeping us trapped in a cycle of anxiety.

**Why is this important?** 

When we seek reassurance, we often receive temporary comfort, but in the long run, it can exacerbate our anxiety. Instead of finding relief, we may end up more focused on our worries, leading to increased stress and discomfort. 

Instead of seeking reassurance, try to cultivate a sense of safety and comfort in your surroundings. This can be achieved through mindfulness practices, deep breathing, or simply engaging in activities that bring you joy. 

This week, let’s write down three comforting activities you can turn to instead of seeking reassurance. Share them with a friend or loved one to help them understand how they can support you better. Remember, it's about creating a safe space for yourself!
