The 7 Anxiety Disruptors For Families: #3 get uncomfortable on purpose

The 7 Anxiety Disruptors For Families: #3 get uncomfortable on purpose

Anxiety wants certainty, and when that’s not possible, avoidance becomes the demand. Unfortunately, as anxious families fall into patterns of avoidance, anxiety strengthens. Families need a different strategy, a way to break patterns and retrain the worried brain. In this episode, Lynn explains how to build on the first two puzzle pieces of expecting and talking to worry (our first two episodes in this seven-part series). It’s now time to DO the opposite of what worry demands: step into situations that actually make worry arrive, and lay down new pathways by responding differently. This puzzle piece is the meat of the sandwich…it takes courage and encouragement, as well as consistency and practice. The worried brain needs the opportunity to relearn.
