    1274: What Would Claire Weekes Say About Social Media And Anxiety?

    In today's episode, Gina concludes her series on Claire Weekes' anxiety clearing process with reflections on what Dr. Weekes may have thought about the role of social media for people suffering with anxiety. The internet has held many benefits for people with anxiety, including learning about others who have a similar experience and how to remedy these aversive symptoms. It is quite clear the internet and social media can exacerbate anxiety substantially, as well. Listen in for advice on how to take the good and leave the bad with the internet and social media, as well as thoughts on what Claire Weekes might say about our situation today. Stillpoint Fridays is my once-a-week Friday note — a slower, more personal reflection that’s different from what I share on the podcast.

We also reflect on how her approach would apply to today’s online anxiety culture, while noting that this is speculative.We discuss how the internet can be helpful for people with anxiety by reducing shame, offering community, and pointing listeners to useful resources.  At the same time, we consider how searching, scrolling, and constant reassurance-seeking can become part of the anxiety cycle by teaching the brain that discomfort must be answered immediately.We look at how comparing our recovery to other people’s online stories can create pressure and a sense of falling behind. We also talk about doom scrolling, symptom videos, and recovery accounts, and how repeated attention to symptoms and danger can intensify fear and keep the nervous system on alert. The episode closes by reviewing the main ideas from the series: sensitized nerves, first fear and second fear, acceptance, floating, letting time pass, and reducing symptom monitoring and reassurance seeking. The central message is to simplify, return attention to ordinary life, and avoid turning recovery into another performance. #Anxiety #AnxietyRecovery #ClaireWeeks #DrClaireWeeks #MentalHealth #AnxietyRelief #PanicAttacks #NervousFatigue #Burnout #StressRelief #HealthAnxiety #OvercomingAnxiety #Mindfulness #MentalHealthAwareness #SocialMediaDetox #Doomscrolling #InnerPeace #SelfCare #MentalWellness #SelfHealing #AnxietySupport #NervousSystem #AnxietyManagement #StressManagement #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #GinaRyan #Aloha #HealingJourney #MentalHealthMatters #FindYourCalm #ACP See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    1273: How To Stop Being Afraid Of Anxiety Sensations: The Claire Weekes Way

    In today's episode, Gina continues her series on Claire Weekes' anxiety clearing methods. Specifically, how to begin to embrace anxiety sensations, rather than pushing them away in fear, is covered. This important practice can result in fast progress being made in anxiety recovery. Listen in and expand your knowledge of Claire Weekes and start reducing your anxiety!

We focus on the idea that panic is only fear exaggerated, and we frame panic as a high-arousal stress response rather than something mysterious or dangerous.We look at common anxiety sensations in the body, including a racing heart, tingling, nausea, shaky legs and hands, adrenaline surges, and derealization.  We discuss how these sensations feel very real, but how the frightened mind often adds a second layer of fear by interpreting them as emergencies.We revisit Claire Weekes’ distinction between first fear and second fear. First fear is the automatic body response, while second fear is the alarm reaction to the sensation itself. We emphasize that recovery comes less from eliminating every sensation and more from changing how we respond when they appear.We also talk about the role of monitoring, checking, and reassurance-seeking.  Whether it is checking the pulse, investigating tingling, or repeatedly testing whether things feel real, we describe these habits as keeping attention fixed on the symptoms. Instead, we practice allowing sensations to be present for a short time without interfering.We close with a simple exercise: when a familiar anxiety sensation shows up, ask whether we can let it be here for another minute, soften the body where possible, and return attention to daily life. The episode ends by returning to Claire Weekes’ message that we do not need to run away from fear, but can see it as a physical feeling and keep living. #anxiety #panic #panicattack #claireweeks #mentalhealth #anxietyrecovery #stressresponse #anxietyrelief #mindfulness #nervoussystem #firstfear #secondfear #adrenaline #heartpalpitations #derealization #depersonalization #anxietyawareness #anxietysupport #mentalhealthmatters #copingmechanisms #anxietysymptoms #selfcare #wellness #podcast #anxietycoachespodcast #ginaryan #healing #overcominganxiety #stressrelief #sensation acceptance #exposure #bodyawareness #observer #innerpeace #calm #mentalwellness #holistichealth #emotionalhealth #mindbody #ACP See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    1272: You May Be Recovering From Anxiety Without Realizing It

    In today's episode, Gina continues her discussion of Claire Weekes' approach to anxiety clearing, particularly how nervous system exhaustion can manifest and how to proceed with anxiety clearing gradually. Anxiety recovery is generally a slow and uneven process, even boring. Letting go of constant monitoring and checking for anxiety can help us pivot into a general state of anxiety recovery, allowing sensations as they present themselves and continuing with our daily living activities. We grow more accustomed to adverse sensations over time and become more resilient. Listen in today.

We explain her idea that “you are not ill, you are tired,” using it to describe nervous system exhaustion rather than disease.We explore the idea that recovery is often boring and gradual rather than dramatic.  Instead of a sudden breakthrough, we usually notice small stretches of ordinary life where anxiety is less central, such as making breakfast, driving, or talking to someone without focusing on symptoms.We discuss how repeated checking, monitoring, and fear can keep anxiety important in the brain. By continuing with ordinary activities while allowing sensations to be present, we give the nervous system new information that these sensations are not emergencies.We also talk about the common habit of turning recovery into a performance, with rules around acceptance, floating, exposure, or meditation.  The episode emphasizes that we do not need to do these perfectly, but rather reduce interference and let attention return to life.Another key point is that confidence often comes after action, not before it. We encourage starting small and living while still anxious, such as going to the store, taking a walk, or making plans, so that confidence can build from experience.We also explain that progress is uneven and may only become visible in hindsight. #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #GinaRyan #ClaireWeeks #AnxietyRecovery #MentalHealth #NervousSystemHealing #AnxietyRelief #PanicAttackHelp #AcceptanceAndCommitment #FloatAndLetTimePass #Mindfulness #MentalHealthAwareness #StressRelief #OvercomingAnxiety #Overarousal #NervousSystemRegulation #MorningAnxiety #GentleExposure #HealthAnxiety #SelfHealing #InnerCalm #PeaceOfMind #MentalWellness #SelfCare #BrainNeuroplasticity #Neuroscience #EmotionalWellbeing #HealingIsBoring #OrdinaryRecovery #RecoveryJourney #ACP See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    1271: Claire Weekes On Setbacks: You Haven't Lost Your Progress

    In today's episode, Gina discusses Claire Weekes' thoughts on setbacks in the anxiety recovery process. Difficult days are a part of the anxiety recovery process. Even after much progress and periods of peace and calm, we are bound to experience the return of angst and discomfort. The key is to not let such bumps in the road lead to a loss of hope or a belief that we are on the right path towards more peace and groundedness. Listen in for more thoughts about setbacks during anxiety recovery and why they do not mean you are not getting better!

We explain that a difficult day, a return of anxiety, or a panic attack does not send us back to square one.We use Claire Weekes’s terms “sensitized nerves” and “loosen your grip” to describe a nervous system stuck in alarm mode and the need to stop over-controlling sensations.  We connect this to the idea that recovery is about trusting our body and mind to heal over time.We look at common patterns that make recovery feel harder, including perfectionism, making recovery into homework, collecting techniques, and chasing certainty. We note that practices like breathing, meditation, grounding, and journaling can be helpful, but they become burdensome when we treat them as required for safety.We also describe a more helpful response: continuing ordinary life while anxiety is present, rather than waiting for total calm first.  We emphasize that recovery is rarely linear, that nervous systems react to many stressors, and that familiar fear does not mean we have forgotten how to heal.We close by returning to Claire Weekes’s approach as a relationship with fear rather than a performance. We encourage patience, allowing time to pass, and continuing without starting over, while remembering that recovery is measured by our growing willingness not to organize life around fear. #Anxiety #AnxietyRecovery #AnxietySupport #AnxietyRelief #PanicAttacks #PanicAttackRecovery #Setbacks #RecoveryIsNotLinear #NervousSystem #NervousSystemHealing #OveractiveAmygdala #Hypervigilance #ClaireWeeks #FaceAcceptFloat #LetTimePass #SensitizedNerves #LoosenYourGrip #SelfRegulation #MindBody #MindBodyConnection #SelfTrust #HealingJourney #RecoveryJourney #Perfectionism #MentalHealth #MentalHealthAwareness #MentalHealthPodcast #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #GinaRyan #StressRelief #ChronicStress #SelfCompassion #SelfCare #Mindfulness #MindfulLiving #OvercomingAnxiety #InnerPeace #PeaceAndCalm #EmotionalWellness #MentalWellness #OvercomingFear #LiveWithoutCertainty #GentleHealing #MentalHealthMatters #YouAreNotStartingOver #ACP See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    1270: How to Start Living Again: Even When You Feel Anxious

    In today's episode, Gina discusses another core Claire Weekes anxiety clearing concept: facing. It is important to remember we can keep on living even when anxious feelings are present. Being able to turn towards either sensations or situations that make us uncomfortable and live through them is a key component to facing and to clearing anxiety in general. Listen in to learn more about Claire Weekes' facing and improve your anxiety clearing progress today!

You are able to say to yourself, ‘I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.’  -Eleanor Roosevelt Chapters 0:27 Welcome Back to Gentle Living 2:18 Living Before Anxiety Leaves 6:48 Willingness and Values 11:35 Do Life Gently 13:08 Confidence Follows Action 16:18 Relearning Safety 18:46 Reclaiming Life Slowly 22:29 Eleanor Roosevelt’s Courage Summary In this episode we continue exploring Dr. Claire Weekes’ approach to anxiety recovery and focus on the idea that life cannot always wait for anxiety to disappear. We discuss willingness, values, and the importance of taking gentle action even while uncomfortable feelings are present.We look at the common habit of postponing life until we feel calmer, more confident, or more rested, and how this can gradually shrink our world.  We explain that recovery does not require getting rid of anxiety first, but learning to participate in life with anxiety along for the ride.We discuss Claire Weekes’ term “facing,” which we describe as gently turning toward feared sensations or situations instead of avoiding them. We contrast this with forcing, white-knuckling, or fighting anxiety, and emphasize that the goal is to move forward in manageable steps.We then connect this to values, describing values as qualities such as connection, kindness, health, creativity, or service.  We show how values can guide small actions, such as meeting a friend briefly, walking for a few minutes, or returning to a hobby, without needing perfect comfort.We also talk about confidence, explaining that it usually follows action rather than coming before it. We note that each small, willing step gives the nervous system new evidence that discomfort can be carried, and that healing and living can happen together. #Anxiety #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #GinaRyan #DrClaireWeekes #ClaireWeekes #MentalHealth #AnxietyRecovery #FacingFear #ExposureTherapy #GentleExposure #ApproachBehavior #Willingness #ValuesBasedLiving #NervousSystemHealing #OvercomingAnxiety #PanicAttackRecovery #HealthAnxiety #Agoraphobia #IntrusiveThoughts #BuildingConfidence #SelfCompassion #Mindfulness #MentalWellness #SelfCare #EmotionalHealing #ACTTherapy #StressRelief #SelfGrowth #InnerPeace #HealingIsNotLinear #LivingWithAnxiety #MentalHealthAwareness #MentalHealthMatters #OvercomingAvoidance #SmallSteps BigChanges #GentleLiving #MindsetShift #EleanorRooseveltQuotes #AnxietyRelief #InnerCalm #ACP See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    1269: How To Break The Habit Of Fear And Retrain Your Anxious Brain

    In today's episode, Gina discusses Claire Weekes' idea of "the habit of fear" and how anxiety is often largely a learned pattern of sensations, interpretation of these sensations and exaggerated emotional reactions to these sensations and interpretations. Learning to reinterpret anxiety related bodily sensations as not necessarily threatening or dangerous can go a long way to helping us in our anxiety recovery. Listen in and strengthen your ability to interpret bodily sensations and environmental factors in ways that do not signal danger to your body-mind and become more resilient and less anxious today!

We discuss how fear may start with a body sensation, a frightening interpretation, and then more physical alarm, until the brain begins to expect danger from similar cues. We explain that the nervous system can become sensitized and that modern terms such as conditioned responses, neural pathways, and the predictive brain help describe the same process. We look at how the brain makes predictions from past experiences and how those predictions can trigger checking, bracing, avoidance, and reassurance seeking. We also cover Claire Weekes’s reminder to “not be bluffed by your feelings,” meaning that sensations can feel convincing without actually signaling danger. We discuss how short-term relief can reinforce the old fear pathway, while allowing sensations, thoughts, and uncertainty without reacting helps create a new response.Finally, we emphasize that progress is not measured by never feeling fear again. We focus on returning to ordinary life, reducing monitoring, and noticing when an old alarm is active without treating it as an emergency. #Anxiety #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #GinaRyan #ClaireWeeks #HabitOfFear #AnxietyRelief #PanicAttack #NervousSystem #NervousSystemRegulation #PredictiveBrain #NeuralPathways #ConditionedResponse #AnxietyRecovery #OvercomingAnxiety #AcceptanceAndCommitment #IntrusiveThoughts #MentalHealth #MentalHealthAwareness #StressRelief #Mindfulness #SelfCare #EmotionalWellness #AnxietySupport #InnerPeace #CalmYourMind #HealYourNervousSystem #BodyAwareness #Overthinking #MentalWellness #HolisticHealth #ACP See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    1268: From Symptom Monitoring to Self-Trust: The Practice of Utter Acceptance

    In today's episode, Gina discusses the frequent anxiety related behavior of symptom monitoring and how to overcome it. This is another core aspect of Claire Weekes' anxiety recovery protocol: acceptance, and more emphatically, utter acceptance. Learning to become comfortable with any symptoms anxiety throws at us is very helpful for our anxiety recovery. Utter acceptance of the symptoms can help us do this. Listen in and let go of constant self-monitoring today!

Go to them with utter acceptance and let time pass. -Dr. Claire Weekes Chapters 0:27 Utter Acceptance Begins 3:48 The Monitoring Trap 10:20 Body Scans vs Scanning 15:48 Loosening the Checking Habit 20:32 Trust Over Supervision Summary In this episode we focus on moving from symptom monitoring toward self-trust through Claire Weekes’ idea of utter acceptance. We explain how this differs from radical acceptance, which is about accepting reality, while utter acceptance means full permission for bodily fear without bracing, checking, or resistance.We talk about how anxiety often keeps us in a cycle of monitoring the body, seeking reassurance, and searching for explanations.  We describe how attention to sensations like heartbeat, breathing, dizziness, or fatigue can make them feel more urgent, which then increases anxiety and creates more sensations to monitor.We also distinguish anxious body checking from mindful body scanning. A mindful scan is described as curious and non-judgmental, while anxious scanning looks for danger and tries to confirm safety.  We note that even meditation can become a checking ritual if we use it to test whether we feel better.We then outline practical steps for reducing monitoring: noticing checking habits without judgment, pausing before checking, shifting attention outward, stopping daily comparisons, choosing one checking behavior to loosen, using permission phrases, and allowing progress to be imperfect. The episode closes by emphasizing that the opposite of monitoring is trust, and that we can notice uncertainty and still continue with daily life. #Anxiety #AnxietyRelief #PanicAttack #AnxietyRecovery #ClaireWeeks #UtterAcceptance #RadicalAcceptance #HealthAnxiety #Interoception #SymptomMonitoring #Mindfulness #NervousSystem #SelfTrust #MentalHealth #MentalHealthAwareness #AnxietySupport #OvercomingAnxiety #BodyScan #DBT #SelfCare #InnerPeace #StressRelief #DropTheStruggle #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #GinaRyan #EmotionalWellness #Mindset #HolisticHealing #Wellness #LetItBe #ACP See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    1267: Stop Checking Your Anxiety: Claire Weekes on Letting Time Pass

    In today's episode, Gina continues her Claire Weekes series with an episode devoted to the often overlooked step in her core clearing protocol: letting time pass. Letting time pass connects importantly with acceptance and floating. The differences between "letting" time pass and "waiting for" time to pass are expanded on. Listen in and come to understand the final letting time pass step in Claire Weekes' anxiety clearing protocol and further your anxiety clearing journey today!

We explore what “letting time pass” means in practice and what it is not. It is not waiting for anxiety to disappear, putting life on hold, counting symptoms, or treating recovery as a test. Instead, we keep living ordinary life while allowing sensations and thoughts to come and go without turning each moment into a measurement. We also discuss why checking symptoms so often can keep anxiety central. We contrast “practice” with “testing,” and we look at how measuring progress too closely can hide deeper change. Progress may show up as continuing with plans, staying in situations longer, returning to the day after a hard moment, and responding with more kindness.We connect Claire Weeks’ advice to modern ideas about threat learning and safety learning.  Repeated experiences of surviving anxiety without catastrophe give the nervous system new information over time. We note that old alarms can still return, especially when we are tired, stressed, sick, or facing change, but this does not erase what we have learned.We close with a gentle invitation to notice checking, soften the body, and continue with what we are doing. We emphasize that healing is gradual, not linear, and that we do not need to be impatient with time. #Anxiety #AnxietyRecovery #ClaireWeeks #NervousSystem #MentalHealth #AnxietyRelief #Mindfulness #SelfCompassion #Neuroplasticity #PanicAttack #AnxietySupport #MentalHealthAwareness #LetTimePass #Floating #Acceptance #SymptomMonitoring #OvercomingAnxiety #NervousSystemRegulation #HealingTakesTime #InnerPeace #Calm #MentalWellness #SelfCare #Psychology #AnxietyManagement #StressRelief #SelfHelp #EmotionalWellness #MindsetShift #HealingJourney #GinaRyan #ACP #AnxietyCoachesPodcast See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
