Podcast description:
What if healing health anxiety didn’t mean getting rid of every symptom first?
In today’s episode, I share a powerful mindset shift: learning to bring your anxiety symptoms with you rather than letting them control your life. Whether it’s dizziness, chest tightness, or intrusive thoughts, the goal isn’t to “fix” everything before living again, it’s to begin living with a new relationship to those sensations.
You'll learn:
-
Why waiting for symptoms to go away can prolong your suffering
-
How to reframe your response to symptoms
-
The difference between avoidance and acceptance
-
Why this shift can be the most liberating part of your healing journey

- Emotional Freedom Techniques on The Anxiety Guy YouTube Channel
- Surrender Session Meditations on YouTube
