Ever felt like anxiety is an uninvited guest that just won't leave? Episode 301 of The Anxious Truth, hosted by Drew Linsalata, offers a fresh perspective on managing anxiety through mindful acceptance. This episode isn't about calming or grounding techniques; instead, it focuses on letting go of resistance and allowing anxiety to just 'be'.
Drew, who has battled anxiety disorders himself, guides you through an eight-minute exercise designed to help you observe and accept your anxious thoughts and sensations without judgement. The goal is to show that all internal experiences are transient and will change if you let them. Drew emphasises that this exercise isn't for those dealing with PTSD or trauma flashbacks, but rather for those struggling with chronic anxiety.
He provides practical steps to help you release physical tension and objectively label your thoughts and sensations. It's a tough practice, but Drew reassures that it's okay to struggle and reset as needed. By the end of the episode, you'll have a better understanding of how to coexist with your anxiety without fighting it. So, if you're tired of waging war against your anxious mind, this episode might just offer the relief you've been seeking.
