How to stop fighting anxiety and start using it to your advantage with Dr. David Rosmarin.","description":"Hey friend. Are you an anxious soul who\u2019s hell-bent on making your anxiety disappear? If you\u2019re nodding your head yes, this episode is for you. Today, I\u2019m joined by Dr. David Rosmarin \u2014 Associate Professor at Harvard Medical School, program director at McLean Hospital, and founder of the Center for Anxiety. He\u2019s a clinical psychologist, scientist, author, educator, and keynote speaker who\u2019s been featured everywhere from Good Morning America to TED.com. And his message is powerful: Anxiety isn\u2019t something to get rid of \u2014 it\u2019s something to understand, and even embrace. In today\u2019s conversation, we\u2019re talking about...  The two different types of anxiety and how to know which one you\u2019re experiencing. Why so many people are struggling with anxiety (and why we\u2019ve become so afraid of our anxious feelings). Why trying to get rid of anxiety can keep you stuck \u2014 and what to do instead. Why the mental health system may be over-diagnosing people. The role uncertainty plays in anxiety, and how avoidance makes it worse. The four-step process that'll help you thrive with anxiety. How to support a child who may be struggling, too.  ...and so much more!&amp;nbsp; If this episode gives you even a small burst of hope, would you take a second to share it with another anxious soul who might need to hear it too?
