We know this tool will prove helpful so we hope you enjoy the episode! If you have any questions or comments please visit us at www.modernmindbodytherapy.com/podcast.

In this episode we are sharing our second master tool for managing your anxiety. We discuss how to let go of evaluating or judging anxiety in favor of describing the not-so-threatening physical sensations that accompany anxiety. When we get out of our heads and into our bodies we can use sensation and body posture to gently coax our nervous system back into a state of relaxation and calm. Be sure to check back soon for Anxiety Master Tool #3.

Hey... you know something? You are more than your enneagram number.  You are a flowing soul, self-ing through this life. Labels and diagnoses can be helpful, but they have limits. Join us as we break down the concept of flowing through the middle path of your identity. Sometimes the answer is, "that's just how you are."

In this episode we're exploring the many dimensions of the self. We discuss new ways of understanding yourself, why you do what you do, and why it can be so hard to change unwanted behaviors or habits. Sometimes a new perspective and some helpful DIY tools are all it takes to start making measurable progress toward growth and change.
