Ever wondered how to truly accept anxiety? In this episode of The Anxious Truth, Drew Linsalata, a therapist and former anxiety sufferer, kicks off a three-part series on the art of accepting anxiety using the ACT Tri-flex framework. Drew shares his insights on the importance of getting present, the first step in the ACT Tri-flex, and explains how it can help you start your journey toward acceptance.
He dives into the difference between 'doing mode' and 'being mode', and why it's crucial to shift from one to the other for effective anxiety management.
