67: In today's solo episode, I'm sharing details on my personal journey with therapy—how/why I started it years ago, including the good, the bad, and the ugly, as well as why I think therapy is a powerful tool for growth. I also get into some specific techniques I've been learning and practicing lately about how to deal with anxiety that comes in the form of worry. I chat about:
- Why your brain defaults to worrying
- The first step in using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to stop worrying
- A quick and effective gentle grounding exercise to help bring you back to the present moment and stop worry in its tracks
- What's a worry station and how do you use it?
