Maybe you’ve been meditating, breathing, journaling, and it still keeps coming up. Turns out, there's a reason for that, that I haven’t heard anyone else talk about. Owen O'Kane is a psychotherapist, three-time Sunday Times bestselling author, and former NHS Mental Health Lead who has spent 30 years at the intersection of physical and mental health, including a decade in palliative care. In this conversation, Owen shares how anxiety is not an enemy to be defeated but a scared part of you that's desperate to be heard, and we get into exactly how to finally change your relationship with it. 🎧 What you'll learn: Why anxiety is addictive, and the psychological mechanism that makes it almost impossible to let go of, even when it feels like it’s ruining your life The reason most anxiety treatments don't fully work (and what’'s almost always missing) What \"positive beliefs about worry\" are and how they might be sabotaging your recovery Why anxiety can suddenly appear out of nowhere in adulthood, even if you had a seemingly normal childhood The single most important question to ask yourself if you want your relationship with anxiety to actually change Why all your breathwork, supplements, and wellness practices might be making things worse The one question Owen asks every new client before they do anything else, and why he won't move forward until they can answer it honestly If you liked this episode, check out this one: Feel Less Anxious Now: Solutions To YOUR Top Qs For more from Owen O’Kane: Instagram: @owenokaneten Website: https://www.owenokane.com/ Addicted to Anxiety, https://read.macmillan.com/lp/addicted-to-anxiety-9781250439970/ Ready to uplevel every p…","meta_description":"Have you ever wondered why anxiety is so hard to get rid of, even when you feel like you’re doing everything right?
