Super quick, simple, and powerful practice for you today on The Transforming Anxiety Podcast: we're going to talk about naming the things.
Most of the time, we're lost in our thinking. We're telling stories about what's happening, we're fighting against how we're feeling or doing our damnedest to try to feel something *else*, and we're spinning out over the difference between our current situation vs. what we think should be happening.
*sigh*
Today we're going to explore the practice of naming the things. Simply recognizing and being aware of what is...and naming it.
I feel anxious.
I don't like this.
I need a break.
I'm tired.
No editorializing, no fixing, no explaining. Just: right now, it's like this.
Become aware. Observe. Name it. Simple...not always easy, sure, but worth practicing.
Let's talk about it together on this week's episode of the podcast. Join me...
