Redirecting Chronic and Obsessive Worry as a Caregiver

The Caregiver Cup Podcast

Send Cathy a text:)

Do you feel like worry and anxiety are your constant companions as a caregiver? It's time for a change, and this episode is your golden ticket to making that change happen! As we mark the three-year anniversary of the Caregiver Cup Podcast, we implore you to join us in a candid discussion about worry - the worry habit, the core beliefs and most importantly, how to manage it. You can also listen to Episode 159 for more about worry.
Taking care of someone can often lead us down a rabbit hole of obsessive worry, which is both mentally and physically draining. But what if we told you that it's possible to redirect your energy from these worries to more positive thoughts? Listen in as we delve deep into the difference between general and unhealthy worry, the core beliefs that fuel obsessive worrying, and how we can transform this energy into trust and positivity. Our personal stories of overcoming worry will enlighten you on the many ways it can manifest and how to combat it.
But what's a celebration without some audience participation? As we commemorate three years of this podcast journey, I want to hear your thoughts, experiences, and encouraging messages. Share with us and get a chance to feature in our special video!
Remember, managing worry and anxiety is a journey, and together as a community, we can help each other keep our cups full. So, plug in those earphones, lean back, and let's toast to the strength and resilience of caregivers everywhere!
