Stop trying to talk your way out of anxiety.","description":"Today\u2019s quick tip isn\u2019t about what to do \u2014 it\u2019s about what not to do. If you\u2019ve ever tried using affirmations or talking yourself out of anxiety when anxious, you\u2019ve probably noticed it doesn\u2019t really work. Here\u2019s why... when your nervous system is in fight-or-flight mode, your amygdala takes your thinking brain offline \u2014 it\u2019s like taking a phone off the hook (remember those days). Your thoughts can\u2019t get through. Instead of trying to think your way out of anxiety, learn how to feel your way out. That\u2019s what I\u2019m teaching you in today\u2019s episode. If this was helpful, share it with an anxious friend. And if you\u2019re exhausted from always being anxious and ready to finally feel calm, grounded, and back in control of your life, I\u2019m now offering 1:1 anxiety coaching. This is your chance to stop white-knuckling through your days and start actually enjoying them. Email me at hello@tarabixby.com and let\u2019s take this next step together.
