This week on The Anxious Truth, we're going to talk about how to slay your anxiety

dragon in 2022. Well, we're really going to talk about how to start slaying it.

When we learn that anxiety recovery is really about building a bunch of little

recovery habits and then stringing them together, so let's get started.

Hey, welcome back everybody. This is The Anxious Truth Podcast episode number

189189 Happy New Year. This is our first show of 2022. If this is your first time listening

to The Anxious Truth, they're watching on YouTube. I am Drew Lensilada. I'm creator and host

of this podcast. The Anxious Truth is a podcast that talks about all things anxiety and anxiety

recovery. So if you're having problems like panic attacks, panic disorder, agor phobia,

that sort of stuff, this is the place you want to be. You are welcome here at all times.

If you are a returning listener or a long time listener, welcome back. I appreciate your time

and attention as always. Today's episode is really all about the idea that anxiety recovery

does not happen in big leaps and bounds. It's not dramatic. It's not epic. If anxiety is a dragon

and you're trying to slay it, you don't slay it with one swing of your sword, you actually slay

it with like a thousand paper cuts, probably more like 27,000 paper cuts to be honest with you.

So we're going to talk about that today. But before we get started, I want to remind you of one

little thing. And that is on January 3rd, just a couple of days ago, I launched a project called

the anxious morning. And the anxious morning, first of all, it's off to a great start.

Everybody's really enjoying it. It is a little email newsletter and podcast that comes out every

weekday morning. So it's a quick anxiety recovery lesson, something to think about tips and tricks,

techniques, things that will make you think, things that will make you talk, all related to anxiety

and anxiety recovery, recovery delivered into your email inbox every morning when you wake up.
