COURSE
Healing The Root Of Anxiety
With Isabelle Elja M.Sc.
For those of us who have lived with anxiety most of our lives, we almost forget how it feels to live free from its grip. The endless worrying, overanalysing and avoiding anxiety-inducing situations become second nature. Although what I offer you here is no quick-fix, it can provide you with lasting, deep healing of the root cause of your anxiety. I want you to experience the freedom from anxiety that is your birthright. This course is rooted in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, as well as deep inner child work, and recent insights from psychology and neuroscience. Through daily lessons, guided meditations, and practical exercises, you will gain tools to navigate anxious thoughts, heal past wounds, and develop a more compassionate relationship with yourself.

Beautiful voice and cadence. Didn’t learn a lot that was new in the first few lessons but found the final two to be thought provoking and useful

Amazing course I only gave a 4 as I think it should be longer meditation wise, and 7 days isn't long enough to heal from anxiety it should at least 30 days for this and you should tell people to repeat the courses, thanks! Xoxox

This course is excellent. I have listened and taken notes but will continue to listen and ponder and make my own notes. I have explored anxiety and assertiveness before but Isabelle says things so clearly and compassionately that it is far better than others I have heard or read.

Great course that covered a lot of ground in a short time. Enjoyed that it had more of a scientific & clinical orientation. Also noted common themes with work of Dr. Judson Brewer and his research addressing anxiety. Thank you for contributing this content!

I really appreciated the way this course was laid out - in small nuggets that I could focus on each day and that I have written down to continue to carry with me. Thank you so much.
