One of the biggest lessons we can learn from anxiety is to change the things we can. Today we have 4 changes you can make to reduce your stress hormone cortisol!    Episode Quote:  Somehow, in our modern civilization, we have acquired the idea that the mind is working best when it runs at top speed. Yet a racing mind lacks time even to finish a thought, let alone to check on its quality. When we slow down the mind, we work better at everything we do. Not only is the quality of our work better, we are actually able to get more done. A calm, smooth-running flow of thought saves a lot of wear and tear on the nervous system, which means we have more vitality and resilience in the face of stress. — Eknath Easwaran    To learn more go to: What is anxiety?http://www.theanxietycoachespodcast.com/what-is-anxiety/     Learn more about your ad choices.
