Essential: Ease Your Anxiety with Dr. Lauren Cook

How would your life change if anxiety wasn't an enemy to fight, but a whole-body signal you could learn to move through? In this Essential Series episode, you will learn that anxiety is a whole-body experience and how you can train your mind to move through anxiety instead of fighting it. This is a snippet from Episode 181, where Kelly speaks with licensed clinical psychologist, bestselling author, speaker, and TikTok therapist, Dr. Lauren Cook, to share insights from her international bestselling book, Generation Anxiety. In Generation Anxiety, Lauren describes the "three main sharks" that trigger anxiety (our own minds, society at large, and other people) and explains why naming our triggers can help us move through discomfort. They also talk about how anxiety shows up not only in our thoughts but also in our sleep, energy, and gut, and how certain food choices can cause or worsen anxiety, while others may ease it. Plus, you will learn how anxiety can run as a habit loop, how avoiding these feelings can keep the cycle going, and how becoming curious about our anxiety and changing our habits can make life feel lighter. Be inspired to ease overwhelm and feel calmer every day. Listen to the full discussion from episode 181 here!
