The Biggest Mistake We Make in Treating Anxiety


Listen Later

The biggest mistake we make in treating anxiety is believing it’s because of the thoughts in our mind.

What we refer to as “anxiety” is, at its core, a sense of ALARM from old childhood trauma stored in the body.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on the episode.
