This chapter explores techniques to reframe anxiety as excitement, enhancing performance in stressful scenarios. It intertwines personal anecdotes with research insights, while also reflecting on the significance of meaningful gifts and addressing initiatives for domestic violence shelters.
We all get anxious at times, but what we forget in those moments is that anxiety is just there to protect us, it's trying to do its job, and the more we lean in and play along, the more we start to feel in control again. In today's episode, we break down the four ways I've made my anxiety work for me, including:
- Turning anxiety into excitement
- The certainities list method
- The personification method
- Channeling anxious energy into creative energy + more
If you're someone who struggles with ongoing anxiety, this episode will hopefully provide you with a new perspective, or at least a refresher on what we do know about the way anxiety effects us. Listen now!
