Stress and anxiety are becoming increasingly common, particularly at this difficult time.

And handling this anxiety can feel difficult and lonely. Handling the overwhelming feelings, our view of ourselves, worries about the future, and things feeling out of control.

I've worked with my own anxiety in my 30's, and with many clients with anxiety in my counselling practice over the last 15 years.

So I've put together this course on handling anxiety based on this experience and what has helped.

The course consists of 7 short videos, the longest being less than 20 minutes, and 4 exercises that can be used to help with anxiety.

1. Introduction and what we'll be Covering

2. All About Anxiety

3. Turning Towards Anxiety

4. What We Put Our Attention On Grows

5. Being Good Enough

6. The Importance Of Balance and Harmony (rather than pushing things to the max) !

7. Summary And Resources

The course will include

• what causes anxiety

• latest research

• types of anxiety

• techniques to handle anxiety

• how to handle modern life

• resources and a support group

I've also included some links to additional resources for further reading and exploring.

We'll also be considering the hidden gifts of anxiety. What are we learning as a result of these symptoms and how might it change our view of ourselves and others?

There are also 4 guided exercises to practice and have in your toolbox to bring about calm through the day.

1. Centering and Grounding

2. Kindness Exercise - great for helping with social anxiety

3. 3 Minute Check-In - a nice mindfulness exercise

4. Younger Self/Inner Child Reassurance Exercise

All videos have easy to follow slides and subtitles.
