Summary
In this episode, Gina guides listeners through the question of whether or not our attachment to our thoughts and desires exacerbate our experience of anxiety and panic. Gina suggests dropping our attachment to our preferences, even if just as an experiment, and observing the impact on our anxiety. The expected outcome is increased calmness and reduced anxiety, allowing for more substantial healing to begin.
