The magic thing that happens is that when you use exercise, starting with gentle walking in place as a way to start to overcome that fear response to how you feel being afraid of your own body, it will spill over into all aspects of your life.
Ever felt your heart racing and palms sweating just from a simple jog? You're not alone. In this eye-opening episode of 'The Anxious Truth', host Drew Linsalata tackles the common but perplexing issue of why exercise can sometimes make anxiety feel worse. Drew breaks down what's really happening in your body and mind when you exercise, helping you understand that it's not the activity itself that's the problem.
Instead, it's your reaction to the physical sensations that can kick your anxiety into high gear. He offers a step-by-step guide to reintroducing exercise into your life, starting slowly and staying just at the edge of discomfort. It's not a quick fix, but Drew assures listeners that the effort is worth it. The benefits go beyond just physical health; as you learn to manage your anxiety through exercise, you'll find that other triggers in your life become less daunting too.
This episode is packed with practical tips and encouragement, making it a must-listen for anyone looking to break the cycle of anxiety and reclaim their life.
