Anxiety: It’s Not All In Your Mind
 
with Jill Satterfield

The seeds of anxiety originate from a variety of sources: repeated trauma, illness, chronic pain, hormonal imbalance, a mind caught in fear of the unknown future. Knowing how we can skillfully work with ourselves when anxiety takes root, including before anxiety emerges, comes in many forms. Awareness of our internal landscape fosters the sensitivity to know how to work with these difficult feelings. By developing mindfulness, we cultivate internal awareness to address the body before anxiety spreads, give kind attention to our bodies, and learn to recognize the progression of thoughts and emotions that arise prior to anxiety taking hold.
