#744 This week on Anxiety Slayer we‘re talking about the “fiction” our minds create that can spin us into anxiety, stress, and self-doubt.

This week on Anxiety Slayer, we are thrilled to share a new conversation with Dr. Dain Heer. Dain is the co-creator of Access Consciousness. Shann and Dain discuss the anxiety and fragmentation that so many of us experience and how these ungrounded energies hide our miraculousness. We talk about how easy it is to identify with anxiety, with contraction, or with the pain we carry in our bodies. And did you know that our limitations are often a protective shell, hiding the miracle that we are? Learn practices and powerful questions to open up more choice and freedom, like: “What am I pretending not to be, that if I were, would set me free?” Just sitting with this invitation/question creates more space around anxiety and self-judgment. If you’re feeling caught in a loop of anxiety, you’re not alone. The first step to changing your experience isn’t about fixing yourself, but allowing yourself to expand beyond old definitions, even if it feels unfamiliar. There is so much more to you than anxiety, panic, or any label you carry. You are a miracle! Join Dr. Dain and Access Consciousness facilitators and students around the globe on June 22nd for Being You Day.
