Lessons In Anxiety

When people talk about unwanted habits, so often things like drinking, smoking, binge eating, gambling, or mindless scrolling on social media come to mind. But what about the mind’s habits like worry, panic, anger, or intrusive thoughts? Believe it or not, those are habits too.

In this audio, I share my personal experience with anxiety and the lessons I have learned along the way. Two things that have become very clear are that these feelings are safe and temporary and that the mind is a far better storyteller than a fortune teller.

Great reminder about the mind not knowing the difference between real and imagined upsets. Just hard to remember at the time.

I found this such a beautiful reminder of the impersonal nature of anxiety. I related to your words so much. Thank you

Brilliant track Jess! So much that is helpful in here. I love that you point to anxiety being a mind habit, and the safety of our experience. Thank you!

Thank you, Jess! I really resonated with how you described our minds as storytellers, not fortune tellers. I can really get caught up in worried thinking, and that is such a simple and helpful reminder.

I loved the way she talked about anxiety as a habit and the personal story she shared. This was so helpful. She also has a very soothing voice! Looking forward to more tracks from Jessica.
