About this listen
In this podcast episode, DARE coaches Michelle Cavanaugh and Aida Beco discussed anxiety and how to deal with it effectively. They emphasized that anxiety is not a problem that needs to be fixed, but rather a normal human experience that can be handled with the right approach. They introduced the concept of "defusion," which involves stepping back from your thoughts and feelings and observing them without judgment. This allows you to accept anxiety as simply a part of your experience, without getting caught up in the struggle to control it.
Aida and Michelle also talked about the importance of "internal exposure therapy," which involves exposing yourself to the thoughts and feelings that you fear in a safe and controlled environment. This can help you to learn that these thoughts and feelings are not actually dangerous and that you can tolerate them without experiencing any negative consequences.
Overall, this podcast episode offered a helpful and encouraging perspective on anxiety. By learning to accept anxiety and manage it effectively, you can live a happier and more fulfilling life.
We hope you find this podcast episode helpful.
