Andrea Wachter is a psychotherapist and author. Having struggled with her own mental health issues she is perfectly placed to help those people presenting with anxiety, depression and other mental health concerns and she has been doing for the last 30 years. In this episode I ask Andrea about the difference between thoughts and feelings and why awareness of this difference is important in our own mental health journey. We talk about how to deal with worries and negative thoughts. Discover the roles of self-compassion and self awareness when it comes to optimising ones own relationship with oneself. Expect to hear how anxiety can have a physical manifestation in our bodies. We also hear how best to interact with people in our lives who are struggling with anxiety. We learn about the importance of meditation in giving us control over our thoughts, emotions and our relationship with both. Plus Andrea talks about some simple mental health strategies she refers to as her toolkit which can be deployed in times of anxiety, low mood or worry. https://www.andreawachter.com/ Order Happy Habits for Mind and Body Audiobook: https://rb.gy/h5jjjg Order Kindle copy of Happy Habits for Mind and Body : https://rb.gy/jiojcc Order US paperback of Happy Habits for Mind and Body : https://rb.gy/sirste Order UK paperback of Happy Habits for Mind and Body : https://rb.gy/jtfea5 Listen to all previous podcast episodes of the Happy Habit Podcast via these podcast platforms : Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/ie/podcast/happy-habit-podcast Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Happy-Habit-Podcast/dp/B08K5887J8 Amazon music : https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/670836c2-ea4c-4a23-a67d-a54dd804ef61/happy-habit-podcast Spotify https://https://open.spotify.com/show/2VKIhQK6mYTzLCO8haUoRd Google Podcasts : https://t.ly/hTU8q ----- Follow the Happy Habit Podcast at: Website: https://happyhabitpodcast.wordpress.com/Facebook: Twitter: https://twitter.com/mathieunorry Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/happyhabitpodcast/ Newsletter:
