Saying Yes To Life: Overcoming Anxiety's Limits

When we're feeling anxious or worried and we think it's because of our circumstances, it's common to see our world getting smaller and smaller. We tend to avoid things that make us anxious, which limits our lives and our experiences. We end up saying no to things we really want to do, which can impact our self-esteem and sense of worth.

But what if anxious feelings don’t come from our circumstances? Clearing up this simple misunderstanding can mean freedom from anxiety and worry in a truly life-changing way.

In this audio lesson, we will explore: How our circumstances are never creating anxious feelings, with real-life examples to illustrate this. A tip for how to start seeing this liberating fact for ourselves. Why does knowing this make it easier to simply experience the feeling of anxiety or worry, so we can say yes to what we want to do in life.

Thankyou so much for that, it was beautiful and really helpful.🙏

This is so very reassuring, thank you. Your personal examples and how you started to see this are really helpful too. Thanks for sharing.

This track gives such a helpful view of anxiety. I loved hearing Lindsey’s experience in the MRI. Excellent track!

I loved how you explained this! Made me really think about anxiety in a different way. Thank you!

Thank you, Lindsey- I really appreciated your discussion. You sound so warm and welcoming! You inspired me to consider an area of my life where I have anxious thinking. I love running outdoors, but I somehow got worried about the possibility of encountering large dogs during my runs. As you described, this made my world small, in that running on a treadmill or not running at all became my only options. Obviously there are tons of people who exercise outdoors despite the presence of the occasional dog! I have recently started running outdoors again. My anxious thinking gets revved up when I see a dog, but I am able to keep running. I like how you clearly pointed me in a new direction that helps me to find possibilities and expansiveness. It’s not the dogs that are creating my anxiety, but my own worried thinking that they pose a threat of some kind. Thanks again for your guidance!
