PEACE with Anxiety: Healing High functioning Anxiety in Eldest Daughters

9 Self-Sabotaging Habits That Keep You Stuck in Anxiety Mode (You’re Probably Doing Half of Them) [Ep 32]

This episode dives into nine habits that quietly fuel anxiety, habits that often seem normal but can leave us feeling drained and overwhelmed. We explore how things like people-pleasing, ignoring our body's signals, and overthinking can create a cycle of stress that feels inescapable. The key takeaway is that these habits were once survival strategies, but they may no longer serve us and can even contribute to feelings of anxiety. We offer practical, straightforward shifts to help you recognise and address these patterns with kindness and compassion. By naming these habits and understanding their impact, we can begin to rewire our nervous systems to feel safer and more at ease in our daily lives.
