This isn't just host Lindsey Nichol talking - it's Lindsey GUIDING you through 3 calming meditations specifically designed for your recovery journey. Save this episode. Bookmark it. Come back to it whenever you need it. This time of year, anyone can feel overwhelmed by holiday chaos. But for someone with an eating disorder, the anxiety can be crippling. Pre-meal panic. Body image triggers. Overwhelming thoughts that feel impossible to quiet. Lindsey has walked this path. She knows how overwhelming those thoughts and feelings get, especially during the holidays. That's why she created these simple, powerful meditations to be your companion whenever you need to: Calm pre-meal anxiety before eating with family Ground yourself during a body image crisis Show yourself compassion on the hardest days Whether you're struggling with pre-meal anxiety, having a hard day with your body image, or just need a moment to ground yourself - press play on this episode. Come back to this episode when you're feeling overwhelmed, when you're feeling not enough, and when that anxiety feels like it's on overdrive. The 3 Guided Meditations: Meditation #1: Pre-Meal Calming Meditation (For Anxiety Before Eating) When to use this: Before lunch or dinner when anxiety feels highest When sitting down with family for meals When you feel panic rising about food choices When the ED voice is loudest before eating What Lindsey guides you through: Finding comfortable seated position Gentle breathing to become present Noticing thoughts like clouds passing in the sky Hand-on-heart, hand-on-belly grounding Affirmations: "I give my body permission to be nourished" "I choose to feed my body with compassion" "Food is my medicine. This is a good thing" "This is one step in my recovery journey" Breathing mantras: "I am stronger than the eating disorder voice" "I have the wisdom to nourish my body" "I am more than my body" Duration: ~5 minutes Key truth: These quiet moments of connection with yourself are powerful. This helps you separate from the ED voice and reconnect with your TRUE self. Meditation #2: Body Image Grounding Meditation (For Body Hate Days) When to use this: When you're having a hard body image day When "feeling fat" is overwhelming When critical thoughts about your body won't stop When you need to reconnect with gratitude for your body Important reminder: "Feeling fat" isn't actually a feeling - it's often your body's way of telling you something else is going on emotionally. What Lindsey guides you through: Comfortable position (seated or lying down) Noticing where your body contacts the ground (grounding) Body scan from feet to head with gentle awareness: Feet: Connecting to the ground, wiggling toes Legs: Getting stronger, supporting you Core/Stomach: Your true strength, your center (not to be micromanaged) Chest: Rising and falling with each breath Arms/Hands: Tools to express love, create amazing things Head: Houses thoughts AND dreams, desires, wishes Acknowledging judgmental thoughts without judgment Thanking your body for what it allows you to do Self-hug + gratitude: "Thank you for allowing me to walk, breathe, be grounded" Key practice: When critical thoughts arise, simply say "I notice I'm having a judgmental thought," then return to observing with curiosity. Duration: ~7 minutes Key truth: Your body is not your enemy. It's not up for negotiation. It's your HOME - where you live. Meditation #3: Self-Compassion Meditation (For Suffering + Hard Moments) When to use this: When you're feeling overwhelmed When you don't honor or love yourself When you don't know where to turn next When you need to be as kind to yourself as you'd be to a friend What Lindsey guides you through: Thinking of a recent challenge in recovery Noticing emotions and physical sensations Hand over heart, feeling steady heartbeat Affirmations: "This is a moment of suffering" "Suffering will pass - it's part of life and recovery" "I can be kind to myself in this process" Imagining a friend facing the same challenges Asking: "What would I say to them? How would I support them?" Offering yourself that same grace: "I'm doing the best I can" "Recovery takes time" "I'm worthy of patience and understanding" Key practice: You deserve the same kindness you'd offer your friend, mom, or sister. Duration: ~5 minutes Key truth: Your ED voice may be loud this season, but it doesn't have to control you or your actions. Key Reminders Throughout: Thoughts Are Like Clouds: They can come in (like your breath) and flow out (like your exhale) without you grabbing onto them. Your Truth: These thoughts can pass like clouds in the sky You are MORE than these thoughts This voice is NOT your truth You can choose recovery in this exact moment Your worth will NEVER be determined by food or weight You are SAFE here For Beginners: This isn't about doing it perfectly. It's about giving yourself permission and the gift of being present and compassionate. How to Use This Episode: Save it. Bookmark it. Add it to a playlist. Press play: Before meals when anxiety rises During body image struggles On overwhelmingly hard days Whenever you need grounding Come back often: These meditations get easier with regular practice. Each time you return to this episode, you're strengthening your recovery toolkit. Pause anytime: Lindsey guides you through, then gives you space to practice on your own. Feel free to pause and extend any meditation as long as you need. Powerful Truths from This Episode: "Since your body, it is worthy of nourishment" "These thoughts are like clouds passing in the sky - they can come in and go out without you grabbing onto them" "Your body is not your enemy. It's your home. It's where you live" "Feeling fat isn't actually a feeling - it's often your body's way of telling you something else is going on emotionally" "Your core is your true strength, your center - it's not to be micromanaged" "You deserve the same kindness you would offer to your friend" "Your eating disorder voice may be loud, but it doesn't have to control you" "Recovery isn't about perfection - it's about progress" "These quiet moments of connection are so powerful" Why These Meditations Work: They're Specific to ED Recovery: Not generic mindfulness - these address pre-meal panic, body image, and self-compassion specific to eating disorder struggles.

On this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik talks with autistic hypnotist Lawrence Bartley about what actually happens when anxiety starts to rule your life and why traditional talk therapy is not always enough. Lawrence shares how a single hypnotherapy session shifted a lifetime of anxiety, how the emotional brain ignores logic, and why real change can sometimes happen faster than we have been told. If you are dealing with anxiety, stress, fear or emotional baggage and you are curious about hypnosis, this conversation breaks down myths, explains how hypnosis works without mind control, and gives simple, practical tools you can try today. This is a grounded look at anxiety healing, hypnosis for mental health, and emotional regulation that you can apply in real life across work, relationships, and everyday stress. About the Guest: Lawrence Bartley is an autistic hypnotist who supports people. especially autistic individuals. to release anxiety, fear, stress, addictions and long held emotional pain through hypnotherapy. After years of anxiety that did not shift with therapy, counseling and lifestyle tools, he experienced a powerful change during a hypnotherapy training and decided to dedicate his work to helping others access the same level of emotional freedom. Lawrence focuses on practical subconscious work, emotional energy, and guidance that keeps the client in control of their own healing. Key Takeaways: Anxiety often comes from short childhood moments that the emotional brain never processed, so it does not always require years of work to shift. Logic alone cannot dissolve anxiety or phobias. emotions are stored in the emotional brain, not the analytical brain, which is why “talking yourself out of it” rarely works. Hypnosis is not mind control or movie style drama. in ethical hypnotherapy the client is always in control, following suggestions they agree to, and the goal is healing, not performance. Lawrence describes healing his lifelong anxiety after a focused hypnosis session during a training, following several days of going in and out of trance and working on his subconscious patterns. Emotional energy can be shifted by activating the anxious feeling, then imagining its movement in the body and reversing that movement to neutralize the charge. A simple self tool he shares. notice where anxiety sits in your body, imagine its direction of spin, mentally reverse the spin, then fill your body with a “healing color” that feels safe and strong. He also recommends Jin Shin Jutsu. a Japanese practice where you gently hold each finger to calm worry, fear, anger, sadness and low self esteem while you feel the pulse and let the nervous system settle. Real healing starts when you stop fighting your mind and start listening to what it is trying to protect you from. awareness plus the right tools can turn anxiety from a life sentence into a solvable problem.

As a Jesus Follower, Go to God in Your Fear and Anxiety Because Jesus Says: “do not be anxious about tomorrow” MESSAGE SUMMARY: Your problems are not too big for God; God is faithful. Your financial issues, your debt, your health issues, and your sins are not too big for God. God is faithful, and He is trustworthy. Why not take, to God, all those things in your life that are creating anxiety? In Psalms 9:9-10, the Psalmist encourages you to put your trust in God: “The LORD is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. And those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.". Also, Jesus tells us, in Mathew. 6:33-34, that you can put our trust in Him and not be anxious about your problems: “But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.”. Our God is a faithful God – reach out to God when fear and anxiety are taking a firm hold on your life.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, fill me with the simple trust that even out of the most awful evil around me, you are able to bring great good — for me, for others, and for your great glory. In Jesus' name, amen.     Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 91). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, because of I am filled with the Holy Spirit, I will not be controlled by my Heartlessness. Rather, I will walk in the Spirit's fruit of Kindness. “The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.” (Galatians 5:22f). SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV): Mathew. 6:25-34; Mathew. 10:19-20; 1 Corinthians 7:32-35; Psalms 48:1-14. A WORD FROM THE LORD WEBSITE: www.AWFTL.org.

You're anxious — not because you're weak, but because you're carrying a weight God never built you to hold.In this video, we break down the real reason you're anxious…and why the cure Jesus gives is shockingly simple.Most people think anxiety is just emotional.Bonhoeffer said it's theological.A belief system.A quiet sermon the anxious heart preaches:“God won't come through for me… so I must save myself.”In this breakdown of Matthew 6, we uncover:

Have you ever noticed how, in certain seasons of life, several people around you seem to struggle in their relationships all at once? Almost like these things move in waves?Sometimes these couples are good people with good intentions — people who genuinely care, but simply don't have the tools or perspectives to navigate conflict or connection. Those situations are painful, but they're fixable with the right support.And other times… when the situation is not “a rough patch.”It's a bad relationship.There are behaviors that make the relationship feel heavy, tense, or unsafe...And patterns that leave you feeling small, tense, or on edge…And despite the pain, the fear, and the exhaustion — people stay.So the real question is:Why do we stay in relationships that are hurting us? Why do we work so hard to hold onto someone who isn't good for us? Why does being alone feel scarier than staying?In this week's episode of Heal Your Relationships, I break down the three core reasons we stay stuck in toxic or deeply dysfunctional dynamics.These reasons are not about weakness.They're not about failure.They are about psychology, attachment, and emotional survival.And once you understand them, you can finally begin to heal your patterns instead of repeating them.Timestamps:01:35 — A birthday week reflection02:26 — When “good people” struggle in relationships (and why it's fixable)03:20 — When it's more than conflict — it's abuse04:29 — My definition of a toxic relationship05:33 — Why people stay in bad relationships for years06:53 — Reason #1: Anxious attachment11:59 — Reason #2: Trauma bonding15:40 — Reason #3: Fear of abandonment17:57 — How all three lead to low self-esteem19:00 — The stories we tell ourselves to justify staying21:12 — How our programs and events help you heal these patternsTry one change this week:If you're in a relationship that feels painful or stuck, gently ask yourself:“Which of these three patterns am I living out?”Not to shame yourself.Not to force a decision.But to speak the truth to yourself — the first and most essential step in healing.This episode is not about telling you to stay or leave.It's about naming what's real so you can finally choose your next step from clarity instead of fear.If this episode gives you even one moment of recognition or self-compassion, it has done its job.Oh—and if you have something you're navigating and would love my take on it...

Send in a question or comment via text.Anxious people love coping skills and coping strategies. Everybody loves to cope. But today we're going to talk about how coping can go off the rails and become part of the problem instead of part of the solution.When you're dealing with chronic anxiety or an anxiety disorder, coping strategies can actually backfire. Every time you frantically reach for your grounding techniques or breathing exercises because you desperately need to calm down, you might be reinforcing the belief that your internal state is dangerous and must be controlled at all costs. If you've been stuck in the trigger-cope-trigger-cope cycle for months or years and you're still terrified of the next episode, something isn't working.This episode breaks down the difference between internally and externally generated anxiety, and why that matters when we talk about coping. We'll look at how coping can create conditional okayness that shrinks your life, and we'll explore what it might look like to use coping techniques as brave experiments instead of frightened control attempts.This is a challenging topic, but if you've been wondering why all your coping skills don't seem to be moving you forward, this episode might help you understand what's actually happening.For full show notes on this episode:https://theanxioustruth.com/332Support The Anxious Truth: If you find the podcast helpful and want to support my work, you can buy me a coffee.

It's a bit of a cliché to say that we live in uncertain times. Just look at the headlines. Relationships — from the global to the intimate — are fraying. We swim in waters full of fear and worry, contempt and disdain. Anxiety abounds. That's why today's guest — writer and cultural commentator, Sara Billups — has written a new book. It's called “Nervous Systems: Spiritual Practices to Calm Anxiety in Your Body, the Church and Politics.” It's out now and — spoiler alert — Billups writes quite a bit about Ignatian spirituality. She looks to Ignatius' all-important idea of holy indifference as a way of approaching the anxiety-inducing moment in which we all find ourselves. You may recall that when Ignatius says “indifference,” he's not promoting a lifestyle that is apathetic or callous to the signs of the times. Rather, Ignatius wants us to let go of how we want things to go and to instead allow God's Spirit to use us as they Spirit wills. In short, God's ways are not our ways; so, let's put aside our preferences and discover God's. In addition to this new book, “Nervous Systems,” Billups has bylines in the New York Times and Christianity Today. She completed a Doctor of Ministry in the Sacred Art of Writing at Peterson Cetner for the Christian Imagination at Western Theological Seminary. She writes a Substack called “Bitter Scroll” and hosts a podcast called “That's the Spirit.” You can learn more about Sara and her work by exploring the links below.

In A Failure of Nerve, Dr Edwin Friedman reminds us that “in an anxious world, what is most needed are non-anxious leaders.” Pastor Kong Hee challenges us to walk in the way of Jesus by embracing His self-differentiation and non-anxious presence through five practices: 1) slow-down spirituality, 2) Sabbath rest, 3) silence and solitude, 4) devotional love, and 5) detachment.

Winning When You’re Tired, Anxious, and Under Attack Most Christians aren’t losing the battle because their faith is weak, they’re losing because their thought life is unprotected. In this episode, Jon exposes the real frontline of spiritual warfare: the mind. Anxiety, intrusive thoughts, burnout, comparison, and identity lies are not just emotional struggles, they’re spiritual attacks with mental symptoms. Jon walks you through how the enemy weaponizes your thoughts, how to tear down strongholds, and how to renew your mind with the Word of God so you can finally walk in clarity, confidence, and peace. If you’ve felt overwhelmed mentally, spiritually exhausted, or trapped in your own head, this episode gives you the tools, Scriptures, and Spirit-led truths you need to win the war for your mind and live the life of The Uncommon Christian. Your mind is a battlefield, and the enemy knows it. In this episode, Jon shows you how to defeat anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and spiritual exhaustion by taking back control of your thought life through the power of God’s Word and the renewing of your mind. This is the roadmap to winning the war in your head and walking in uncommon clarity and freedom.

Most people believe anxious attachment is a personality type.It isn't..In this episode, I reveal the truth almost no one is teaching:.Your anxious attachment style is not who you are - it's a state created by the assumptions you hold about yourself, love, and your worth..And when you understand that, everything changes.This is the foundation of The Candice Tamara Secure Method™ - my signature state-based approach that combines subconscious reprogramming, nervous system regulation, identity work, and the Law of Assumption into one cohesive, transformational framework..Inside this episode, I take you deep into:✨ Why anxious attachment isn't an identity - it's a conditioned state.✨ How subconscious assumptions become your lived experience.✨ How your nervous system stores old emotional imprints.✨ Why awareness alone isn't enough to create change.✨ The mechanics of shifting into a secure state.✨ The three pillars of The Candice Tamara Secure Method™: • Belief Reprogramming • Nervous System Regulation • Secure Identity Embodiment.✨ How state-shifts transform your relationships and your life.This is where psychology meets consciousness.Where the nervous system meets the Law of Assumption.Where you stop trying to “fix” yourself and step into a new state of being..Your attachment style was learned.It can be unlearned..And the path back to security is far more powerful and far more possible than you've been told..If you're ready to experience this work directly, explore my masterclasses or my signature program ⁠⁠Anxious to Secure in Love ⁠where The Candice Tamara Secure Method™ is taught in full..Free Masterclass: ⁠⁠Becoming Secure You⁠⁠Masterclass: ⁠⁠Stop Attracting Avoidants⁠⁠Masterclass: ⁠⁠Stop Them Pulling Away⁠⁠Signature Program: ⁠⁠Anxious to Secure in Love⁠⁠.Connect with me on Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@candicetamara_⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ways to work with me: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.Enjoying the podcast?

Dr. Cheyenne Bryant — psychologist, author of “Mental Detox: Let Go of What’s Not Working & Build a Life That Does”— joins Angela Yee, Jasmine Brand, and Jordy to break down the real psychology behind modern dating. From anxious attachment and abandonment trauma to love bombing, narcissistic traits, identity struggles, over-sexualization, and the fear of real intimacy — Dr. Bryant goes deep on why so many of us repeat the same patterns, choose the wrong partners, and mistake trauma bonds for love. We open up about our own relationship struggles: Jasmine’s need for reassurance, Angela’s independence, Jordy’s oversexualized dating history, and how childhood wounds shape adult relationships. Dr. Bryant explains how to build healthy love through emotional intelligence, vulnerability, communication, and self-awareness — and why “potential” is an illusion that keeps people stuck. Later in the episode, the conversation turns to sex, intimacy, boundaries, and the things we compromise (or don’t) for love. Dr. Bryant talks about submissiveness, sexual comfort zones, non-negotiables like threesomes, and how real connection requires honesty about who you are and what you need. This episode is one of the most vulnerable and revealing Lip Service conversations yet — raw, honest, and filled with practical tools for healing and building healthier relationships. Topics include:– Love bombing vs healthy pursuit– Narcissism myths & misunderstood traits– Anxious attachment & abandonment wounds– Childhood trauma shaping adult love– Transactional sex vs relational intimacy– Identity struggles, self-worth & vulnerability– Why relationships “grow apart”– Communication, boundaries & emotional intelligence– Sex preferences, non-negotiables & intimacy comfort zones– “Gallons vs pints” partners & choosing correctlySee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, I'm sharing the ONE question I use every time I feel myself getting spun up, defensive, or swept away by a story my mind is creating: “What else could be true here?” It's a simple question, but it pulls you out of ego, helps you regulate your nervous system, and brings you back into compassion, clarity, and grounded self-leadership. If you've ever had a moment ruin your whole day—or your relationships—this episode will feel like a breath of fresh air.If you have questions, want support, or are interested in my Black Friday offers, you can always reach me directly at coaching@macierenae.comSupport the showVisit macierenae.com to learn more about Macie & her work!Interested in working with her?

If you're stuck in a spiral of overthinking — replaying conversations, asking 15 friends what to do, imagining every worst-case scenario — this episode will feel like a deep exhale. Overthinking isn't you being "careful." It's a self-trust deficit. And that is a skill gap, not a character flaw. In this episode, I break down: • Why anxious rumination feels so real and so urgent • How patriarchy, people-pleasing, and fear of rejection trained you not to trust yourself • The difference between careful planning and dress rehearsing tragedy • Why outsourcing decisions to friends keeps you stuck • What self-trust actually is (and why it's messy, imperfect, and learnable) • Tiny, doable steps to rebuild your self-trust today • How this plays out in dating, boundaries, and big life decisions • A framework to stop overthinking and start acting from your gut If you've been doubting yourself for years — in your dating life, your friendships, your career, your boundaries — this episode will teach you how to finally have your own back. Self-trust is a skill. And you're about to learn it.   Work with Lily ✨ Main Character Life Mastermind — Applications Opening soon!Sign up for my free training-- Stop People Pleasing and Build a Stupidly Joyful Life-- on Dec 3rd to be the first to apply. RSVP HERE

Are you a Christian mom who feels anxious, overwhelmed, or mentally pulled in every direction? In this episode, we dive into the biblical reason your heart feels restless—and how God brings real peace into the middle of your anxious thoughts. If you struggle with overthinking, mom guilt, mental load, or the constant pressure to hold everything together, this conversation will help you understand anxiety from a spiritual perspective and find comfort in God's promises. We'll look at what Scripture actually says about anxiety, why your heart feels divided, and how God uses your anxious moments to gently draw you closer to Him. This episode will help you learn how to quiet the inner chaos, take your thoughts captive, surrender burdens you weren't meant to carry, and experience the peace Jesus offers—even in the busiest seasons of motherhood.
