Millennial Minimalists

What if anxiety isn’t something you need to eliminate, but something you can approach with curiosity? In this first part of a two-part past conversation, Kelly speaks with fellow Canadian minimalist, musician and international bestselling author Humble the Poet about changing the way we respond to anxiety so we can experience less stress and more calm. Drawing from his book Unanxious: 50 Simple Truths to Help Overthinkers Feel Less Stress and More Calm, Humble explains why we are wired to worry and how paying closer attention to our anxious feelings can help us understand what they may be trying to tell us. You’ll learn: Why trying to eliminate anxiety may not be the answer How to become more curious about anxious thoughts and feelings What Humble learned from completing a 90-day dopamine fast How sitting with uncomfortable emotions can build emotional strength How societal pressures can contribute to anxiety and overthinking Why removing distractions can reveal thoughts and feelings we may be avoiding How minimalism can create space for deeper self-awareness Ways to make choices that feel more aligned with your true self Be inspired to approach anxiety with curiosity, embrace discomfort and make choices that help you feel calmer and more aligned with who you truly are.
