The mental aspect of managing anxiety involves not just controlling negative self-talk but also respecting our mind's limits—like reducing screen time and unnecessary mental clutter that our subconscious absorbs even when we're unaware. This mental maintenance is crucial for achieving a state of calm and balance.On the physical and environmental fronts, our well-being and surroundings significantly influence our anxiety levels. Nutritional choices, regular physical activity, and a tranquil living space stabilize our mental state and lower anxiety triggers.

When it comes to anxiety, you often hear about ways to feel better. But it's just as important to understand what not to do—like knowing what foods are bad for your health. This can be especially tricky with anxiety because some of the things we do to cope might make the emotion actually worse without us realizing it. Although anxiety may appear like a liability, ultimately, it is our responsibility to learn to understand what triggers this emotion, to address the underlying wounds and needs, and to replace the limiting beliefs that keep our self-protective patterns alive. Remember, it's okay to feel anxious and need help.

Anxiety, often seen as a relentless adversary, is in fact, deeply ingrained in our evolutionary story. It's like having a built-in smoke detector or burglar alarm to alert us to potential threats. But when anxiety becomes chronic and overwhelming – when the alarm goes off for no apparent reason - it can hold us back, trapping us in a cycle of anticipation, obsession, and self-doubt. Eventually, we settle to exist in a shrinking comfort zone, afraid to step out and explore our full potential.The good news is that it doesn't have to be this way! By learning to manage our responses to anxiety and identifying its triggers, we can expand our comfort zones and reclaim the freedom to live boldly. Remember, anxiety is not our enemy; it's a misguided protector waiting to be understood.

Do you deal with intrusive thoughts seemingly appearing out of nowhere and disrupting your peace of mind? These thoughts can be unsettling, ranging from disturbing images to irrational ideas, leaving you questioning their origin and impact on your mental well-being. You may prepare dinner or sit in the office when suddenly your mind conjures a scary image or crazy idea that leaves you wondering about what just happened. Sometimes you can shrug these thoughts off as misfiring of your brain. But other times, you may feel bombarded by such a barrage of similar ideas that you start to be concerned about whether you are losing your mind.Here are some facts about intrusive thoughts to help you feel less afraid and more empowered when dealing with them.Intrusive thoughts are common and do not indicate that there is anything wrong with you. Research suggests that approximately 90% of individuals experience unwanted thoughts regularly. Intrusive thoughts are also not truthtellers or reflections of your character. They can be random, nonsensical expressions of the mind, similar to involuntary bodily jerks or twitches that occur as a form of tension release. Some of the more disturbing thoughts, may make you wonder whether you could truly harm somebody or do harm to yourself. Yet, the truth is that without your conscious consent, thoughts don't have the power to force you to take action.Intrusive thoughts aren't literal. Many unwanted thoughts stem from the subconscious mind, which communicates through images and metaphors, for example, in dreams. And just like dreams, intrusive thoughts can serve as a form of mental-emotional release or a way for your subconscious to address issues without conscious input. Understanding this aspect of subconscious communication can help you interpret intrusive thoughts in a broader context.Not all intrusive thoughts should be dismissed. Some thoughts may carry important messages from your subconscious mind. The challenge lies in distinguishing between mind junk and thoughts that hold valuable information. Join me for this new episode of Empowerment Solutions and learn how to calmly listen to these unwanted thoughts, evaluate whether they have useful information, and then let them go. Take your power back and let intrusive thoughts no longer scare you or ruin your day.Friedemann Schaub, MD, PhD, is the award-winning author of The Fear + Anxiety Solution.

As a result, you may harshly judge strangers for being overweight or dismiss people's confidence as arrogant and condescending. Of course, the reverse is also true. The behaviors and judgments of those who shamed you are based on the fabric of their subconsciousBeliefs, and therefore, say much more about them than you. This is why we can't take other people's opinions, good or bad, personally.So whenever shame arises, ask yourself, whether the judgment or criticism from others is truly a reflection on you or whether it is just a projection from them.When you no longer need to hide behind the invisibility cloak of shame to feel safe, you can cultivate a stronger relationship with yourself and develop a greater capacity for compassion and empathy towards others who may still be trapped in their own shame and self-doubt.Join me for this liberating episode on Empowerment Solution and together, let's embrace our vulnerabilities, celebrate our strengths, and strive for a life filled with self-acceptance and belief in our unlimited capacity to heal, grow and thrive.Friedemann Schaub, MD, PhD, is the award-winning author of The Fear + Anxiety Solution.

If you are a self-declared people pleaser, you probably feel more often than not tired of constantly putting others' needs before your own. But even if you find that you have no energy or time to give to others, you most likely find it difficult to say ‘no' (or at least ‘not now'). Disappointing others is much harder for you than letting yourself down. So what will it take to shift the focus away from other people's needs and wants onto your own?Listen to this week's episode to find out.If you have questions about any of the topics that I am sharing in these episodes, join me weekly on Mondays over on my Instagram channel - @dr.friedemannschaub - for Instagram Live, where I will be sharing tips, tools, and strategies on topics like this and more.

In this episode of Empowerment Solutions, I discuss the downsides of people-pleasing and how it can affect our mental health and sense of self-worth. I explore the reasons why we might become people-pleasers, from family dynamics to a need for validation and attention. As someone who has personally struggled with people-pleasing, I share my own experiences and insights on how to overcome it and live a more authentic and fulfilling life. I believe that by learning to prioritize our own well-being and let go of the need to please others, we can break free from people-pleasing and achieve greater happiness. Join me in this episode to broaden your understanding of this matter and learn strategies to conquer people-pleasing.Friedemann Schaub, MD, PhD, is the award-winning author of The Fear + Anxiety Solution.
