Izzy and Owen O'Kane look at how meditation can help us accept rather than fight our anxious self, which can transform our response to anxiety. Owen is a psychotherapist, mental health expert and author who leads a guided meditation which helps us let go of unintentional habits built around anxiety so we can gently reframe our anxious self.

The music that soundtracks Owen's guided meditation was composed by Lillie Harris and recorded by the BBC Singers and viola player Scott Dickinson exclusively for this episode.

Whether you're just starting to meditate or you're a seasoned meditator, this is the perfect podcast for you.
