Releasing Anxiety with Writing is Easy
Anxiety is your body’s natural response to stress. It is a feeling of fear or irrational apprehension about what is to come.
It is a state of survival where your ego wants to protect you from no longer being hurt, but fails….
This is why you end up having irrational behaviours (especially in your relationships) like:
> Excess or deficit of attachment, distortion of reality, guilt, shame, (self) blame, extreme worries and emotions, (inner) conflicts, confusion….
Journaling Anxiety is making the implicit explicit (this is the similarity among all (self) therapies for anxiety relief).
