Welcome to the Anxiety Coaches

Coaches podcast, a relaxing and informative show where we explore anxiety, panic and PTSD sharing how you can overcome them for life.

Oh, Loh how welcome back to the Anxiety Coaches Podcast. In today's episode, I want to talk about

healing anxiety through the power of letting go. We talk about letting go, we talk about

letting go, we talk about surrender, there's a lot of different ways we can broach this subject, but it really needs to be put into practice.

Once we can let go of the grip of, it's almost like a stranglehold that we have on controlling everything.

Once we can actually begin to surrender, we can move through the healing process much more quickly and with so much

more ease.

I came across an article from Leo Balubuta again from Zen Habits and I will put a link

to the entire article in the show notes but there were a couple of points I wanted to pull out of it to talk to you about today,

because it's really important. The way that we can go about actually surrendering and actually letting go can be so

so healing. In this article Leo mentioned what does it actually mean to

surrender right that word surrender I call it letting go. Some people really balk at

the word surrender, but what Leo says in his article is, what does this mean? It's the idea of letting go of some of our systems and

instincts to get control, trying to make the world exactly as we would like it, trying to avoid the world exactly as we would like it, trying to avoid all the things we dislike

and instead relaxing, accepting, even surrendering to the uncertainty, and fluidity of this world.

Now I think that's an awesome description of surrendering, of letting go.

And there is really so much power in that

because you can see even in that statement,

there's so much that we do when we are going down the wormhole of anxiety. There is

avoiding the things we dislike, right? Avoiding things. We talk about that, about

being able to actually turn and face those things.
