This episode, is the most practical and emotionally vulnerable episode of the ANXIETY Rx PODCAST so far. 
In this episode, I talk about the root cause of anxiety being a separation of your adult self from your child self and the practice I do every morning of listening to Peter Gabriel's "IN YOUR EYES" because the words are about creating a connection with his younger self.

In this episode, I talk about attachment styles and how the core of secure attachment is the ability to trust love.

In this episode, I discuss how connecting with the younger version of ourselves can help us deal with anxiety or trauma.
Our inner child sends a signal to us when we feel anxious, and we should be grateful for it.
When we show kindness and care to this younger version of ourselves, we can begin to feel better and move away from anxiety.
Lastly, I share a bit about my own experience and encourage you to connect with your inner child.

In this episode, I talk about how anxiety and difficulty accepting uncertainty are related, which is often caused by traumatic experiences during childhood.
I explain that uncertainty can trigger worry and anxiety in the body.
To overcome anxiety, it is important to become more tolerant of uncertainty by recognizing and accepting it, as well as understanding and addressing the cause of the alarm in the body.
In the healing process, I emphasize the importance of awareness and gratitude.

Resistance is one of these things that rules our lives and we don't even know it.
That's the thing about resistance. Resistance is one of the biggest sabotages, and it's a trick of the ego.
The ego will resist anything that's ever hurt you in the past.
Listen to this episode where I go into detail about resistance and how it's ruling your life.

I answer your anxiety questions in this episode! The following are the questions I answered (in detail):
1. "When is ALARM a good thing and should be paid attention to?"
2. "Is there a way to "unlearn" the bodily feelings of anxiety? After I had my first panic attack my body remembered how it felt and now it goes straight to it when I'm stressed."
3. "How can I tell if I'm having an anxiety attack every time I feel pain or get sick, or if it's a genuine pain and illness?"
4. "What are your thoughts on practices to regulate the nervous system to help with alarm in the body?"
When I asked my Instagram audience for questions, I received hundreds, so I'll be making more episodes to answer as many as possible.
I hope you enjoyed this episode!
