It’s hard to find words for the times we are living in today. Interesting, scary, stressful, angry, strange…it feels like one minute we can have it together and the next be hijacked by anxiety. There is so much coming at us, so much to navigate and so much to sort through as we try to figure out what is true and what is not. It’s A LOT for any body and brain.
Though our minds are easily distracted and swayed, the good news is that we CAN live in peace and balance even in uncertain times…and we all have a choice in the matter.
In this episode, I chat with Shann Vander Leek, host of the Anxiety Slayer podcast and an expert on how to calm anxiety no matter what is going on. She explains why we’re all feeling so anxious right now and gives us hands-on steps to stop anxiety in its tracks…everything from music to getting outside to a simple gratitude practice.

- Practical ways to combat anxiety even in times of uncertainty
