One of the questions I get asked the most in the anxiety recovery journey is if there’s one "hack" or "trick" for long-term freedom.

As someone who has struggled with anxiety, I can say with certainty that the key to long-term recovery is not to focus solely on making the symptoms go away but rather to make the decision to live your life fully despite their presence.

When I was in the throes of my own anxiety struggle, I made the mistake of trying every possible "hack" or "trick" to relieve my symptoms - breathing techniques, yoga, meditation, medication, supplements, you name it.  

But nothing seemed to work, and over time, I became so hyper-focused on how I was feeling that I stopped living altogether. 

The turning point came when I decided to live with my symptoms side by side. Instead of trying to fix or fight the anxiety, panic attacks, digestive issues, and other physical sensations, I simply brought them along as I went about my daily activities.

This shift in mindset was critical - I realized that recovery is not an "all or nothing" proposition and that progress happens gradually, with ups and downs along the way.
