Mastering Anxiety: Lori Kandels' Guide to Breaking Free

I really want them to know that there is a way out and that you don't have to live like that, that it is possible to free yourself from anxiety and that you, the tools that you need to do that, are relatively easy to learn.
Ever feel like anxiety has a grip on your life? In this episode of The Addicted Mind Podcast, therapist Lori Kandels sheds light on how anxiety, often rooted in trauma, can lead to a cycle of negative thoughts and stress that impact every part of your day. Lori explains that anxiety isn't just about the present moment; it's often tied to past experiences or future worries.
This cycle can mess with your sleep, concentration, and overall well-being, making it hard to break free. But there's hope! Lori discusses practical tools like mindfulness, meditation, and tapping (Emotional Freedom Technique) that can help you manage and reduce anxiety. By focusing on the present and understanding your triggers, you can take control of your anxiety and start living a more relaxed life.
Whether you're struggling with anxiety yourself or know someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice to help break the cycle.
