You Don't Have To THINK Everything You FEEL

Anxiety Rx

22-04-2024 • 16 minutes

Hey everyone, Dr. Russ here. This episode of The AnxietyRX Podcast hits a little closer to home than usual. My mom's health is declining, and on top of that, I've been editing my book. Let's just say my brain is fried.

Because of this personal situation, you might notice some bumps in the podcast this week. I apologize in advance, and I truly appreciate your understanding.

That being said, the show must go on! And today's topic is something we can all relate to: emotions. You know, those things we sometimes spend way too much time overthinking?

Here's the thing: what if the key to feeling better wasn't about overanalyzing every single feeling, but actually allowing ourselves to feel them?

There's a power in simply experiencing emotions authentically, without dissecting them to pieces.

This episode is for anyone who's tired of being a prisoner of their own thoughts. We'll explore the science behind emotions, but also the real human experience of feeling them.

Thank you for listening and you can find me on IG: @theanxietymd if you have any questions.
