Hello and welcome to The Therapy Edit Podcast with me psych therapist Anna Martha.

I'll be bringing you weekly 10 minute episodes to encourage and support your really excited to share with you this.

So I was just loving walking in the sunshine and I was thinking about anxiety.

I'd also been discussing it with my intensive group coaching

course and we'd been talking about anxiety that day. So I realize that so often the anxiety I feel has been sparked by maybe a scroll on

social media. I recently received a message about someone whose partner had

sadly died as we often receive messages like that we often

see stories like that shared and as I know many people do I plunked myself right smack pang into the story I imagine the heart take and the fear and it began to feed

My own anxiety often these moments can sweep us off our feet a little bit can't they we just get a bit of data and we find ourselves going down that road of rumination.
