184. Befriending Anxiety: How To Stop Fighting and Start Listening

Description
Does anxiety make you feel like there is something wrong with you? It can feel uncomfortable, overpowering, something to manage or medicate away.

Through practical examples and a simple outside-inside approach, you'll discover how to decode what your anxiety is actually signaling.
