Dealing effectively with anxiety and the discomfort that comes with it is a fundamental skill. It allows you to do what you care about and excel in life, especially when facing unfamiliar situations or unpleasant moments.
In this episode, I interviewed Dr. Joel Minden. He is the director of the Chico Center for Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Diplomate of the Academy of Cognitive and Behavioral Therapies (A-CBT), and the author of the anxiety management self-help book, “Show Your Anxiety Who’s Boss.”
In this interview, Joel and I discussed:
- Three particular skills to manage anxiety
(based on the book “Show Your Anxiety Who’s Boss”)
- How to practice acceptance when dealing with anxious thoughts
- How to deal with uncertainty
- How to practice exposure exercises
- Misconceptions about behaviorism
And you will also listen to an acronym that Joel uses in his work and how I get playful when he shares it. Stay tuned!!!
