Understanding Anxiety
Our thoughts, emotions, body responses and behaviours are closely connected. What we think can influence how we feel, how our body responds, and how we act. In turn, our emotions, physical sensations and behaviours can also shape our thoughts.
Understanding this connection can help you recognise patterns, respond to emotions with greater awareness, and develop healthier ways of coping.
Developing Practical Strategies
These may include:
- grounding
- emotional regulation
- nervous-system regulation
- boundaries
- identifying patterns
- challenging unhelpful thinking
- self-compassion
