Anxiety lives in our bodies and minds, and its main function is to steer us clear of danger. But in today's chaotic and uncertain world, it's easy for anxiety to grab hold in strange ways and not let go. Many people of all ages are experiencing more anxiety than ever, and this anxiety can easily turn into panic. And if you've been in the clutches of a panic attack, you know it's a deeply terrifying experience that can dramatically change how you see yourself and your life. Yet it's possible to retrain your mind and body to have a new, healthy relationship with anxiety by learning to listen to--rather than fight or ignore--what your body is trying to tell you. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Nicole Cain, physician and anxiety expert, who will offer practical insights and tips for getting to the root causes of your anxiety so you can truly heal.
