Note sull'episodio
Feeling anxious doesn’t mean you’re broken — it means you’re human. This episode shows how self-acceptance can become a powerful tool for managing anxiety.
In this fun, practical, short form explainer of Veronica Walsh’s CBT for Self Acceptance post, you’ll learn how to interrupt anxious spirals with new visualisation and self talk - to respond with calm, and build self-trust, with approachable, memorable examples.
This episode focuses on:
• Separating yourself from anxious thoughts
• Using humour and perspective to disarm worry
• Naming and labelling feelings to create emotional pause
• Building self-acceptance as a core anxiety skill
This is not about eliminating stress — it’s about living well alongside it.
