If you can't soothe yourself by arguing with the problem, stop arguing with the problem. Accepting and acknowledging the reality of it is what's going to take you where you need to be and over time, as you keep doing it, where I've avoided feeling- you know my whole life- that now when those things come up, I find them an opportunity for growth and learning.
What if the key to overcoming anxiety and trauma isn't fighting them but embracing them? In this episode of 'The Anxious Truth', Drew Linsalata chats with Joe Ryan about a counterintuitive approach to mental health struggles. Instead of arguing with anxiety and trauma, Ryan advocates for accepting these feelings as they come. It's not an easy path, but it's one that promises long-term change and genuine recovery.
Ryan shares his own journey, illustrating how acceptance, rather than resistance, can lead to a deeper understanding of our emotional landscape. The conversation touches on the importance of self-compassion and the need to treat ourselves with the same kindness we would offer a friend in distress. By learning to sit with uncomfortable emotions without trying to push them away, we can begin to heal and grow.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone grappling with anxiety or past traumas, offering a fresh perspective on how to navigate these challenges with grace and resilience.
