In this episode, Hanna-Mari discusses a piece that's always missing when we're talking about calming our anxiety: acceptance. It's so simple, yet in our haste to try a practice, a therapy, a meditation or a yoga exercise, we forget to actually accept our experience in this current moment. However, this acceptance is often all we need for anxiety to subside completely.

Hanna-Mari also discusses how to parent the anxious part in yourself and the scientific explanation on how long emotions actually stay in our body.

This episode should give hope to anyone who's struggling with anxiety, to know that sometimes calm is much more in our reach than we dare to think.
