If you’ve been following along, you know I recently shared 5 things I tell all my patients about anxiety (Part 1). The response was beautiful and so many of you asked for more.
So here’s Part 2 — five more powerful (and practical) ways to ease anxiety that often get overlooked. No expensive gadgets or a million supplements needed… just you and your daily habits!
1. Slow down Constant rushing = constant anxiety. Build pauses into your day. The same life feels calmer when you slow down.
2. Connection We’re wired for belonging. Deep talks, hugs, nature, prayer—real connection calms anxiety in ways medicine never can.
3. Simplify Too many commitments + clutter = overwhelm. Simplify your life wherever you can. Less noise = more calm.
4. Sleep Your brain detoxes + resets at night. Without restorative sleep, anxiety is amplified. Protect your sleep like your mood depends on it — because it does.
5. Move your body Movement is nature’s antidepressant. Gentle, consistent exercise lowers anxiety + builds resilience.
And here’s the good news: you don’t need to do all 5 at once. Start with the one that feels most doable today. Small steps → big nervous system shifts.
With my patients, once we’ve set the proper foundation, we then go deeper—uncovering the root cause of their anxiety or depression and creating personalized treatments that truly support long-term healing.
If you’ve been struggling with anxiety that doesn’t seem to shift on its own, this may be your invitation to explore it more deeply — with guidance that’s tailored to you. If you'd like to explore this deeper together... book Your complimentary session.
