13. Do What Non-Anxious You Would Do
About this episode
This episode discusses how behaving like a non-anxious person can aid in anxiety recovery by signaling to the brain that the threat response is unnecessary.
In Episode 13, Do What Non-Anxious You Would Do , we explore the role of attention, focus, and intentional behaviour in anxiety recovery. By acting in line with how the non-anxious version of us would behave, we send a signal to the brain that the misfiring threat response is not needed here. We also look at the subtle trap of over-monitoring and over-focusing on our actions, and how this can unintentionally reinforce the very threat response we are trying to disengage from.
