294 - The #1 Reason You Haven't Been Able to Heal Your Anxiety

The Calm Mom - Burnout, Anxiety, Nervous System, Mindset, Self-Care, Parenting, Work-Life Balance

Do you feel like you’re doing all the right things to keep your anxiety at bay, but like a pesky houseguest that never leaves, it keeps showing up?

You’re meditating, practicing mindfulness, managing your time better, even cutting back on caffeine—yet that familiar feeling of anxiety always seems to return. Here’s the thing: anxiety isn’t just something we can outthink or outmanage.

In this episode, we’re diving into why, despite doing "all the things," anxiety will persist until we address the root cause—your nervous system’s dysregulation. It’s not just about mindset shifts or deep breathing; it's about understanding that the body keeps the score. Real, lasting healing starts when we work with our body, not just our mind.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why anxiety stems from unresolved alarm stored in your body, not just your thoughts.
• What trauma really means—and why it’s not just about big, life-altering events.
• How inner child work can be a powerful tool for healing anxiety by addressing emotional wounds from your past.
