What Makes Anxiety Worse and 5 Self-Care Tools to Overcome Anxiety Naturally [Ep 17]
Description
Do you tend to overthink, people-please, strive for perfection, and procrastinate? These coping strategies often keep us stuck in a cycle of false safety, preventing us from addressing the root causes of our anxiety and making our anxiety worse. I’ll share my favourite self-care tool that helps break this cycle and bring balance to all areas of life, along with 4 more self-care tools you can immediately start introducing to your life. This episode offers a sneak peek into my PEACE with Anxiety method, which I’ll present in more detail in my upcoming live workshop. This episode is for you if you’re ready to transform from feeling overwhelmed to becoming empowered, calm, and confident!
Listen as I talk about:
- The importance of understanding the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions.
- How common behaviours like overthinking, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and procrastination make anxiety worse.
- My favourite self-care tool to ease anxiety
- 5 self-care tools to reduce anxiety naturally.
Make sure to bring your paper and pen because this episode is full of actionable strategies!
